    What seems to be the problem?

    An eBay 3rd brake light vinyl in my eyes. Shouldn't have to remove the light itself to remove the vinyl.

    Finger nail to a corner and just peel it off.

    I should have known it was vinyl. Even after removing the pinstriping and a "Limited Edition" badge, I was just scared to try to take it off.
