E55 Lamin-x fog light tint (yellow)

Hey guys i purchased some yellow lamin x tint for my 03 e55 fog lights. The thing is, is that these lamin-x ones only fit for non amg fog lights (pic below). They dont fit the amg becuase it's not oval enough.

Selling for 20+shipping+papyal fee or best offer. (brand new never opened, still sealed with glue)

They need to go. (if you want pics pm me)

I had the same problem with my charcoal Lamin-X tint. I heated it with a blow dryer and stretched it until it covered the entire lens. Worked out pretty well.

Install is easy. Makes sure the lens is completely clean. Then use soapy water (a few drops of dish soap mixed with water in a spray bottle or even a bowl) on both the lens and the lamin-x. Move the lamin-x into the right position and squeegee out the water.

If you don't have a squeegee, take a credit card and wrap it in a microfibre cloth or something similar.

It's just like applying a decal/vinyl sticker or window tint...but much easier to work with than tint.
