tail lights

the one thing I hate about stock tail lights is they stick out after you take out the tail light bezel. I have seen the tail lights flush many times but I want to know how you do it.

Assuming of course you're talking about the '71 fleetside in your signature...The tail light lenses were designed to stick out only slightly above the surface, approximately 1/8-3/16 in. so you can get ahold of the lense to remove it. I don't see anything unsightly about that.

I ground off the 2 nub's (top and bottom) and it set's the lense in closer to the truck look's pretty good to me..
