Default AP1 Taillight Lens on AP2 Tails?

There's a good deal on ap2 tails with a cracked lens. Can an ap1 tailight lens be swapped onto the ap2 housing?

yes. its possible. I have done it myself. But it is very labor intensive. It is way harder than taking apart headlights. I cracked lens of 1 taillight swapping, and ended up having to buy 3rd ap1 taillight to finish job.

When I took apart my AP2 lights they never went together properly... so be careful if you attempt this!

I baked them, but the lens and the housing expand and warp at different rates, and so my lenses shrunk and bowed in a way that made them not really attach to the housings anymore... so they are gorilla taped on. I would just wait for a decent set of used AP2 lights on ebay.
