how to remove taillight covers?
Hello I have been interested in clear taillights for my 2007 IS250 (RWD) since I first purchased it back in November of 2023 and I have only been able to find custom made ones for 600$. recently I stumbled upon a listing for clear taillight covers for my is250 that just replaced the ones on the stock taillights for an OEM+ look, but I was wondering if anyone knows how I would go about actually taking the outer covers off and putting on the clear ones. thank you.

EDIT: oops, I thought you wanted to know how to remove the lights.

I'd guess it would be tedious process of using a rotary file like that of a Dremel tool and cut the old lens off trying not to damage the housing. How you glue it back together so it doesn't leak is another issue.

As best I recall when I had mine out, the cover and the body are sonically welded (fused) but could be glued too. Did the site give any information?
