I GOT ANOTHER JEEP! Lost in the garage episode 3

What happens here

The creator moves to the rear of the Jeep to remove existing taillight cages. He notes that these cages are aesthetically unpleasing and were previously used on another vehicle to conceal damage. He also highlights that the current cages cause the tailgate to pull on the light assembly when opened, potentially stressing the wiring and light unit. He identifies two bolts that hold the taillight assembly and cages in place. He removes these bolts and detaches the cages, leaving the stock taillights exposed. He then expresses a preference for the cleaner look without the cages and mentions considering tinting the taillights black for an enhanced appearance.

Goal: Remove the aesthetically unpleasing taillight cages.
