I'm cutting into the tails to make my custom LED light boards that I'll be replacing the stock lights with. I was wondering if anyone has taken the lens off of the lights? I see some clips that seem to have glue under them. I kinda want to sand down the inside of the lens so it's flat and then polish it so it's clear. But I don't know if it will lose the red tint, and I don't know how thin it would be after I sanded it flat.
