Now just follow Adams guide to wiring and U'll be sound. It's real easy - just pop the wires out of the plugs and rearrange them as per guide.

Why not order the lights that are already tinted?

I did think to Doc, But Ive been using the same film on my vehicle lights for years, its really good shit, not cheap and then it still gives me the option to remove it and have non tinted lights :)

Ha that alrate then I must have good terms. Only got the account set up the other day so it looks like they are looking after me.
That price was the tinted ones but really I want to tint the reverse light dark red as it looks odd

Just decided to bite the bullit and ordered the light units for a barn door model.
I'm guessing I'll have to make the plastic (don't know the word for that piece of plastic covering the bolts from the light unit) fit for my tailgate.

I'll post pictures once I have them (installed)

I think I'll be the first in Holland

The one to order for tailgate is the barndoor version without rear wiper. No plastic modifications necessary.
