You could always buy a sheet of tint, do the fogs and then use the rest on your tails or something. That is the route I went and one sheet was enough for all three tails, as well as the amber reflectors in my headlights.

i just ordered the pre-cuts from the link that silver gave me. I was thinking abt just buying a sheet of tint but was worried that it would be too thin and wouldnt hold up with road debris and small rock chips. Teach do you have any pics of the reflectors tinted out, i just put night runners on and really wanna tint that amber strip on the bottom but dont want to split them open because i tried that with my stock lights and they wouldnt even budge.

Here you go. The nice thing about tinting them is that they look black when you just look at them but they still reflect when a light shines on them. That is why they always show up in a flash picture of my truck but never in a pic taken without the flash.

Yes, it is on the outside. I just cut the general pattern, laid it on and then trimmed the excess. It was pretty easy.
