Rear vents illuminated

[ChuckE]

Has anybody ever removed the rear vents that are on either side of the H2 back window glass?
If so, how do you do it? and is it easy to do?

The reason I am asking is that I have a customizing trick I'd like to try. I want to wire in some lamps back there, sort of like the Volvo station wagons (lights going up the vertical). I don't know what kind of light yet, but once I get it off, and apart, I'll figure it out.

I just think it would be cool to have the otherwise black vents to have small strips of red running lights and/or to have the brake lights wired up to really show more red light on the rear.

Clues, opinions, any leads to who might already have replacement plastic that is dark, but will pass red light through (that is my ultimate target, but I’d settle for just wiring in some strip LEDs also).
