Had to dig around a bit to find these (use the SEARCH function, but look for "tail lights" in post bodies)http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=22186

looks like ZubenElGenubi spotted it :vI did get mine done at JonsTintedTails.comthere are various alternatives, VHT Niteshades, Tinted vinyl, smoked plastic covers...but it's nothing close to what you get with Jon. I should correct myself in my PM about the tint. It's actually a diluted PPG paint (automotive) , and then he applies clearcoats over it to seal it. Essentially he paints the headlight. It's a very professional job, and comes out look great and shiny. You can wax it with the rest of your vehicle, and they shine just as good. He can even do custom work, being as the Vibe has a very segmented tail light.Let Jon know that Ozone with the Matrix sent you, he might be able to give you a slice on the original pricingCheershttp://yourmatrix.o2dazone.com/mymatrix/rollin.jpghttp://yourmatrix.o2dazone.com...7.jpg
