Tail-light "Mulligan"

[Ldub]

So, hint hint, $$ for you. I want a set, either in chrome (if I go with a chrome look) or black. Or, maybe you can write a how to for everyone with photo's. either way, that mod will be on my beloved Dragon soon.

Well Done Mate

Sorry Rowhard, It's not something that I could prefab & sell, as there are just too many variables such as placement, varying radius in the corners & so on.

I will give you the most important tidbits though...

Part # T3602C (black) from O'Reilleys...Style Guard brand
730-4240 (black) from NAPA...Prostripe brand
(they appear to be identical)

For the perimeter, I put my splice on the bottom, just below the reverse light.

Wherever there is a splice or intersection, make your cut square across the moulding, but at a 15-20 degree angle so it overlaps.

A sharp pruning shears or utility knife works best for cutting...don't try to cut it exactly to length...cut it a little long & test fit until it's right.

For the cross bars, follow the pattern in the lens to keep them straight.

It's not that hard, a 3-4 beer job. Take the tail lights out, go sit in the shade, clean em up real good, then clean em again with rubbing alcohol, cut an angle on your first peice of perimeter moulding, & away ya go. Keep the area in front of where you're working clean (where you've accidentally touched the lens) to promote good adhesion.

You won't be able to follow the exact perimeter of the tail light lens, as some of the radii are too tight...if using black, do a little touch up with a sharpie marker or black enamel where it doesn't quite cover to the outside edge.

Do the perimeter first, then do the cross peices.

Replace tail lights, admire your handy man tail light mod, have "she" come out & look at said handy work, have more beer...
