if you have valeos then you can't do it. If you have clear depos then you can. Just take the lights off the car and get a hair dryer and heat around the glue to will start to peal off. Once lense off. Take first outer case off and spray that. Let it dry heat glue up again stick back together. Then clear silicon round so don't steam up. Go for it.

i have valeo and they are smoked m8 but i bought them like that off a lad on here, i done my own on my last car but it means destroying 2 sets of lights tho.
I smashed the glass on 1 set to use the housing ( back bit) and got the heat gun on the housing on the other set and melted all that off then sprayed the little bit inside and clear silicone round the edges to bond them together suggest you get some depos tho
