    My tail light cracked in half. It's a Dennis Carpenter lens withe blue dot already installed. I don't think they are made anymore. So now I need to figure out how to dill a hole in a gl*** lens. I have a set on order. I have the original set that came with the car but I don't want to drill on them. My bezel also cracked.

    Any suggestions on drilling holes in gl*** would be greatly appreciated. I read through some older posts so I have an idea of what needs to be done, just looking for any more info.
    Thanks for taking the time and happy 4th of July.

    I used a cheap sand blaster to do mine. Duct tape the lens, cut proper size hole in tape, then use the blaster to cut hole in gl***.
