This was just a cadeavor tail light to study. The lens in front was broken, but besides, it's just a lens. The tail light reflective housing is one piece unlike the 95-96 model. For those who do not like the chrome trim or the orange turn signal, you can tape up the rest and paint it red. This tail light has a VERY basic design. The reflective housing, the lens, and the defraction lens all come apart with a little heat and a little force. I took the defraction lens apart to show which components can snap off, but basically, it's one piece. I'll be experimenting with paint to see which paint is the least problematic to use with the defractor lens.

Lotsa requests for this so here you go, the reflector backing. This is all one piece that the bulbs directly connect to:

FYI, the bottom middle portion is where the brake light lights up.
