first you take out the 3rd brake light
Image
then use a screw driver to take out the screws on the bottom
Image
then pry it open with a flat head screw driver
Image
then it will be in two pieces lift the top up gently and slid out the reflector
Image
now since its all apart you can find a font or what ever you want to say i wanted civic
so i got a pic of a civic that had one
Image
i put the picture on paint and made it the size of the lenses
Image
then trace it out
Image
Image

then i went to the swap meet and had a sticker made for it cost me $5 dollars
Image
then put the sticker on it with a little bit of soapy water and take the bubbles off
and put it together
Image
now im finish this is what you should have :thumb:
