check out the FAQ how-to's for the one called "how to paint healdights 03-05". once you have the lens apart you can either remove the lens entirely, or tint it black (like i did). While you're in there, paint em black!! i love your truck... that thing is siiiiick.

Here are some pics of when I pulled my amber deflector out. Hopefully it will give you an idea.

You could always leave the reflector in there and then tint it, that is what I did. It still reflects when light is shined on it but it looks black when nothing is shined on it. Just used some leftover tint from when I tinted my tails.

the take apart is not that difficult either and cheaper, but all these ways will get you there!
