On the 10-12,  Soak the spear where it goes over the light fixture.  Then use a plastic putty knife to separate.  Inside the trunk, under the liner you will find one clip on each end.  You can push out on these clips to help separate but you don't need to push too hard or too far.  Then the light fixture will slip out to the side and up off the lid. (No camera on these.)

Coincidentally I followed a black SEL home from the dealer .... red tails look good for sure




Yes they do. If I get half a chance I'm gonna see how the look on Steel Blue. As to the Ford excuse that high pressure wash causes the chrome to peel.....I guess we are lucky that that high pressure wash is not removing our paint and other chrome. It just picks on the tails. Imagine that!

I'll bet they'd look really good on the blue Larry.  I think they would look better on any color.  IMO, sporty cars like the SHO shouldn't have had the gaudy chrome around the tails to begin with.

I look at the back of my SHO now and all I see is this

It does look better then the red tails till one spec comes off then it looks like china crap. Mine only had a few when I bought it like 8 months ago chrome wasnt to bad. Its accelerated to where it just plain looks cheap. Ill be getting red surrounds next summer.
