Default red/clear the stock tail lights?

i just want something different that no one has. is there any way to make the stock 95 accord tail lights half red/half clear? i looked and there is an amber filter in the turn signal housing, appears to just be glued in there. is there any way to get it out without having to pull the lens off the light housing? also, is there any way to clear the red reflector on top?

Correct me if I am wrong, but if you somehow pulled the housing apart you could bust out the reflector. Some kind of heat would work, but I dunno.

yep that's exactly what i'm looking for . . . too bad i'm not doing the civic tail conversion on the accord tho.

b8teen rex, on the accord tail lights, there's three lines of color:
red plastic reflector
clear turn with amber filter and reverse light
red brake light

i can take out the amber filter if i pull the housing apart, but i was also wanting to know if there was any way to make the top reflector clear too. oh well, red/white/red will still look dope
