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

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
