Rit dye works on plastics, a little vinegar sometimes helps. Don.t
expect dramatic results though. The old utility traler lens swap works
fine ,IF you aren't looking for 100% orig.

 Hi all,

Can youse guys remember back to the time, long ago, when we talked about

dying the tailight lenses for ambos and eldos?

I think it was Pat Hayes who recommended placing the lenses in hot water

with some kind of a red dye. I don't remember.. CRS disease!

So, anyone know how to make a faded lens red again?

Thanks!!
