Third Brake Light Disassembled for LED Mod

So I'm sitting here playing with my daughter and staring at this spare third brake light I have and it looks as if the lense will separate from the housing. Naturally I jamb a screwdriver in the space between the two thinking it'll either crack the lense or shatter the housing, but reluctantly enough it popped off just like the fog light lenses do.

So now this has me thinking on what to do, either paint the chrome black or tint it, Then ill reseal it back up with RTV adhesive silicone. But Before i put it back together I ordered some LED boards with 18 SMD's in a rectangular configuration to mimic my LED tails.

And all of you that wish to delete the red lense inside its possible as you can see in the pics. Ill post more pics later when I get painted.

Pics can be seen on the other forum as this app won't allow me to load them.

Make sure you put a voltage regulator on there

Not needed, the boards are already regulated just need to mount and reassemble.
