Default Xj 40 1986 sovereign mismatched tail light colours

[size=16px]Hi Sir as shown below my tail light colours don't match up. It's a reddened smoked tail light and guess there's a coloured plastic part making the lights illuminated, red , white or yellow. But mine is mixed up, how do you reckon I go about removing it. Tried but everything seems to be glued together. I'm in sri lanka so getting parts down here is another whole story. I think this is the one and only xj40 sovereign here😅
​​​thank you all for your help[/size]

Tthe coloured lenses are placed inside the outer plastic cover and then assembled. Yours have been assembled incorrectly by the look of it.
New lenses can be bought online, I bought some on eBay but that was some time ago. They were not very expensive as I recall.

This thread may be of some help in showing you how they go together:
