Wow... where did you get wrappers that big? I know it would be a real buzz, but I bet the plastic is toxic when burned.

Since it's a '01, I'm assuming sedan. For the ccoupe, you remove two access panels on either side, and there are four nuts that you have to loosen. Then the whole light assembly slides off. I'd think that the sedan should be similar. Obviously, you need to disconnect the wiring as well from the end of the taillight assembly - forgot about that.

Removing the first aid kit assembly makes it easier to get to the nuts on the driver's side. CAREFUL: it is very easy to strip the bolts. Don't ask me how I know!

I had my rears smoked, and think it looks great on our cars.
