It wasnt hard. Just take off the silicone and start opening it with a flat screwdriver. I dont think I will be driving with this mod. I dont like how it looks when braking. Also I think its illegal if im not mistaken.........

that doesnt look too bad, im sure if you used a led board setup - it would look great

maybe you can find some red led bulbs- that might be a easy fix
