What year is your Maxima? If it's a 97-99 then you can do it at home. It involves heating up the taillight to soften the glue holding the lense on. You can then separate the lense from the housing, remove the yellow reflector and replace it with a piece of flourescent light reflector found at home depot. There are quite a few people on www.maxima.org that offer this service. I'd recommend having one of them do it. It's too easy to crack the lense if you try and do it yourself.

wow, i cant believe someone actually posted back, time is odd to me and yesterday seemed like a year ago so i feel as if ive posted this 300 million days ago...

heres the deal though, i actually dont have a maxima, i saw this done on a maxima, i have an 88 sentra with tail lights similar to a maximas, if you go to my homepage youll see what i mean...

since they are so similar i thought it could be done to mine...

I don't think you can do that to your sentra. On the maximas the outter taillights have a clear housing with another yellow insert that makes the yellow color. what we do is open the lights, remove that yellow insert and put in a clear insert behind the clear outter housing. on the 95-96 maximas and probably your sentra the outter housing is actually colored yellow. sorry.

it's hard to see from the pictures. you need to get closer pictures. but just look at the lense. is the yellow color coming from the outside lense material, or is it a clear outside lense with a yellow insert?
