Default helppp with tail lights

so i bought this kit to tint my tail lights, and it looks to me that i have to heat the vinyl so that it like molds to my light? is that a pain to do? and does anyone think that i could just ask a place that does tints to do it?

u should be able to go to a tint place to get it done
after my boy tinted his tC lights it looked bubbly
maybe it wasn't done properly
i got mine painted .. no tint so it would have the OEM look
doesn't the kit come with instructions ??

True on that. Be careful to not apply too much heat. Best to remove lenses from the car and do it on a bench. Also, hard to do correctly in cold temps.
