in order to take the taillights apart, you need to break the red plastic covering them. there is no way to seperate the plastic from the housing by heating it up.

although you'd still have the red reflecor on the side (of you paint it red) you'd probably need a reflector on the rear as well. I doubt any cop would give you a ticket if he sees so much red and notices the reflector on the side, but when you go to state inspection (if you have one) just buy 2 stick-on red reflectors and slap them on like so:
