Someone on here posted a video. I broke one of the tabs when I dipped.(before I saw the video) You take a small screw driver around the tail light and gently wedge it under the bezel. so the shaft is touching the light. Slowly work around the light edging the bezel off in small amounts.

Sorry I flunked English twice. Math and Science for me.

Post a pic later.

Use a flat head to pop out the 3 push caps.



Underneath you'll see the tabs. I tried to gently push them out. Didn't work, very cheap brittle plastic.



Proper method

Rash prevention.

I did rash my front passenger wheel only 3 weeks after installing American Racing Tork Thrusts wheels. Either go to a restoration and get the wheel repolished or go on the prevention route.

I istalled RimPro-Tec inserts to hide the previous rash and also add a prevention just in case . The color inserts can be replaced if any rashes happens. Also it looks great on my car which is somewhat diffrerent...

I continued the process of undercoating my 2SS before taking it to the salt flats. It seems to be one of those jobs that only leads to more jobs. But it's progress.

Quick question on a different subject. How do ya get to the reverse lights (backup lights)? Remove the rear "bumper"?

Well, I guess that's another job put off til the end of September when the largest part of the salt flats racing is over. I'm gonna trailer the Camaro, race it, then put it back on the trailer and leave it in the pit area (guarded by security dudes) for the Top Speed Shootout. I'll leave for the salt (only a 2 hour drive for me) on 9/05 and get back 09/17. And I thought Speed Week was a grueling meet. It was only a week.
