Yeah just spray the outsides of the rear lights off the car obviously, and polish to make them shiney again. Can be a bit of a problem however, when I did the ones on my 6n the indicators flashed red afterwards. I've been told to solve this use green bulbs but never tried it myself.

On the other hand, my mk2 had tinted rear lights, but they flashed orange some how lol.
