Z31 Ztek Door Lense Install and Modification
When I received my Ztek door lenses, I wasn’t satisfied with the look of the red lens material. It was made from lighting gel typically used in stage lights. While this is a high-quality, long-lasting material, I wanted to fit the stock lens behind it for a more OEM appearance. Below is the process I used to make this work.

Tools Needed
- Belt sander
- Phillips screwdriver
Parts Needed
Process
- Remove the two screws from the door lenses.
- Take the stock lenses and match it up to the ZTek lenses. You will notice the stock lens is too large to fit into the ZTek cover.
- Mark the stock lenses with a marker for trimming.
-
Gently sand or grind the edge of the stock lenses to your mark and test fit the lenses to the cover.
-
Once the stock lenses fit into the ZTek cover, remove the lighting gel from the ZTek lens by pulling it out.
(You may have to use a flat-head screwdriver to chip the dry glue from the lens.)
-
Reassemble using the longer screws supplied with the ZTek lenses.
