As Charles states in the thread, not for the faint of heart. I used sandpaper, which took a lot longer, but I felt a little safer. By hand is not really an option - need some sort of power. Took me a solid day per headlight working slow and taking breaks with the kids. Had a very sad amber winky face for a couple weeks till I had another whole day to do the second side.
My headlights did not need that done. Mine have the clear lens with an amber box inside of the light housing. Just needed the amber box removed.

Day 2 of being on the road

And my Depo tail lights came in the mail. Believe me, if I can figure this installation out, anyone can. Took maybe an hour...40 minutes for the first one and 20 minutes for the second one. I didn't mess with the wiring like some of you have been doing. Here's the before and after.
