Clearing out the headlight's amber reflector
Is there instructions on how to get rid of that amber reflector in the headlight of the 2000 Lexus GS300? Any help would be appreciated.

The basic process is to break pieces out from the back side using a dremel drill bit, pull and break small pieces out with needle nose pliers and vacuum and shake out the smaller particles. (NO FUN)
The other process is to bake the headlights at around 125 degrees for 15 min. Pry the clear lens out and the amber will come out when you remove the trun signal bezel.. Then just reverse the process to put it back together.
Do a search. People have been posting this mod for over 5 years.
Here are some pics when I did it.
Bake lense off
Remove rear turn signal clear cover. (Amber is already removed and sitting on top in this pic)
Pry open tabs here. (Amber disc is alrady out in this pic)

Seems kinda inconsistent when you consider you have cleared out rear tails.
BTW, luv the red. Did I miss something , or did you have the car painted that color cause it doesn't look like a stock red color.
