I have now almost finished my clear tail lights. I just have to seal them back up, and i'm up and running again! (no more ghetto rigging the lights together!)

I thought you finished them a while ago?



What did you do for "the square" reflectors?

i popped out the stock ones (after really cracking one of the lenses, i'm gonna get a new one, this one has been the guine pig for all light projects, its quite beaten up),



after removing all the red reflector (had to scrape the rest out with a wood chipper), i took a large bike reflector and cut it down to size using a solder gun w/ a cutting tip on it.



Then used clear RVT to seal it back in.
