I Know When I Started To Use A Heat Gun On Them At First They Started To Warp The Edges A Bit. I Ended Up Using A Dremel ...found It Much Easier And Didnt Damage The Lense At All

Maybe you put themto much up front. Lay them back as much as you can. And also pics would help of the LEDs without the red cover on

I never knew the inside of the tails were that slanted. I've seen other people do it and it doesn't look like that

yeah i know i didnt know it was slanted. I think i solved the problem. I just went to my work and found some black gaskets that were the same size as the inner reverse light part and im gonna see if that will block the light from getting into the clear part. We will see
