I done mine. If there Valeo you will need need 4 lights. Smash the glass off 2 of them and heat and cut the plastic of another set.
Reason for having to do it that way is the glue is mega strong and the plastic deforms when you heat it up to prise it off.
I done mine that way.
And theres no reason why it wouldn't be legal tbh

its easy to do yourself however an alternative is lamin-x tinting film you can get a proper black film or a subtle one will be cheaper then buying depo's which are a rip off

you can get genuine unsmoked Depo's off ebay for about 40 posted, just buy some of those and split them (they split easily)
