Bought some a long time ago on ebay. Not the same seller. When I tried to install it myself, I found out that the film was way off. So I threw them away and got a shop to tint them for about $100.
I would suggest bringing it to a place that will tint them for you or take the tailight out and get them sprayed.

I purchased my light tints from Carcustomz.com
They looked smaller than the lights and there was no way I was going to attempt installing that myself.
I had them professionally installed...they look great!

Careful with carcustomz.com, their customer service seems to be hit or miss, as reported by different members here....
