I used VHT also. Be sure to put MANY coats of clear after using the VHT or it will turn nasty looking after some time.

Also, regular window tint will look HORRIBLE. It wont curve right around the outside light so you will have creases and bubbles in it. Thats why the stuff that autobadges sells is smoked vinyl.

Tinting tails on 96-98 is very difficult.. I've got mine from ebay but doesn't completely cover the whole light..
I believe stangmods sells some tint to DIY but give KB a holler on sn95.. he tints a lot and comes out very good..
