the only spot i know that sells it is perfromnce improvemnts in oshawa...that is were i get mine from....i am going to get a can too..when i am in the area next..

IF you go on ebay and type in night shade in search you will find people selling it..but its around the same price and performance.

Just rember this when you tint them...don't put more then 3 to 4 coats casue it might be to dark...good luck!

performance improvments is (i think like) $16

I think you still have to pay for shipping so it would actualy be more money to buy from ebay...???

pmall is your answer to everything....

I think the shop in the middle sells it for $19 a can

Performance Improvements in Newmarket stocks VHT Niteshades. I think it's, as someone else mentioned, around $16-17 per can.

This is an old picture, but I did my taillights myself with the VHT Nightshade.

How many coats is that, Fonz? And how much did it let the light come out? Was it within legal specs? :-P I've been thinking about doing this, too, for a while now, but I don't want to eff it up and ruin my tails... Clearcoat on top?

I put 3 light coats on. The right tail got wrecked, So I went to Dante, and he buffed it out, than just polished it.

This is how it looks up close.

In his picture they are still red??? I just need to know how to remove them..i guess i will have to check behind the bumper and see if they come out from behind.

[Soyabean]

to remove those u need to remove your rear bumper.

[LockOut]

Yea, I think you have to take off the bumper to do it. I never have done it, but I think that when you take off the bumper, there's 1 or 2 screws per reflector.

Do you think i would be able to get it by jacking up the car and reach from behind with out removing the bumper??

[Dante]

Nope, You need to remove the bumper to take those reflectors off. Trust me a real pain in the ass. not as easy as the front bumper is.

In that case i might just tape everything off and spray it on the car...

ive never sprayed the tail lights before but do u do the inside or the outside of the taillights to darken them?

Every time i did my truck/cars with night shade i spray usaly 3 to 4 coats on the out side lens...then i spray like 4 coats of clear coat on it and it shines...just rember clean the lens first with windex/rubing achol.

Also try not to go past 4 coats...on my blue truck i sprayed like 8 coats cause with the light in my garge i thought it was not dark cause i could see red still....lets just say it was dark...i had to buy new tail lights

Here are my lights after 4 coats on my quad cab
