To Tint them mate. I know it's the hard way but I want it to be as OEM as possible.

Just get some masking tape and tape up the circle and use some tint spray. Thats how i did mine before i went for ed30 ones

That's what I was planning to do but now I've seen this video I want to do the quad conversion and spray the backing black to make them like edition 30/R32 tinted ones.
Just hope I don't break any lenses separating them.

^^^That is the only difference between the two types. Normal has a red backing and ed30/r32 has a black backing. It would be good to know if the outers come apart like the inners, please put your findings up :happy2:
MateyGuv:
Also you will want to make sure ALL the old glue is off the lens side before attaching to the painted backing. On non tinted units the glue used is red so will be easily seen once the back is coloured black.
G40will:
I've bought a set of nearly new inners and outers if eBay for the bargain price of £50 posted so hopefully I won't break anything :scared: was it a scraper type of tool you used to get the lenses of? Did you just prythem off?
Thanks.
MateyGuv:
£50 is a mega deal! Loads easier to show you rather than try and explain so look here
