In this video I'll show you how to cheaply temporarily fix a busted tail lamp by using tail lamp tape. This is especially useful if at the time you find out that your tail lamp is busted you don't have enough money to replace it. The repair that you see me doing in this video is not my best work. I actually had my tail lamp assembly tapped up very well before and it has held up until the making of this video. The repair you see me making in this video was only meant to hold up for a few days as I had a new tail lamp assembly on the way. I purchased the tail lamp tape shown in the video for just a few bucks.
Note: In some states you may get a ticket if your tail lamp assembly is busted. Its important that the intended color of the tail lamp shine out when the brakes are applied. (in other words you want your brake lights to be red, not white). Make sure you cover your cracks completely with the correct color tape and follow the instruction provided by the manufacturer of the tail lamp tape you purchase.
