as tingaling said, no laquer needed... just make sure you reseal them properly, one thing i didnt do when i smoked mine :wall: ha

Also lacquering them would loose some of the matt effect

personally i lacqured myne but i was looking for a nice gloss look. but as said its not essential.
I custom-made 2 sets 1 with gloss 1 matte effect and the matt without lacquer results were much much better. The finish was noticeable.
If you mess up i've got a spare set of lights you can have aswell :p
Good luck, post up the results
