I have seen this done a few times so I am giving it a try. I have just opened up the headlights which is a painfully slow process. I will keep updating pictures on the progress of the lights as these are going to be one of a kind.

I seen online that you could put them in the oven, but thinking about it sometime I fall asleep while cooking pizza so no go.
I ended up using a heat gun and 2 butter knives to pop them open.

Hard process to start but once going they start opening right up.
Oh yes if you are going to try this, there is a little screw in the corner, was trying to open them up and finally realized there was a little screw.

SO when opening them, take your time!!!!

Once open remove all the little screws from the housing. once the main piece is removed. to take off the headlight section. be careful. I popped them off but cracked one and broke another clip. Ill figure out something to fix it but damn that could have went very bad if more than one broke.

Well that's the process on how to do it, and it took about 2 to 3 if its your first headlight.


Note: if using a heat gun, watch of for the melting of plastic if you get too close and could warp the headlight..









Some much sealant on these lights. they may have used a tube per headlight.



Amber D2 Diffused Lights as Turn Signals


E2 High/ Low for driving lights

 

I want to see this when done

 

Will do, tomorrow or tonight im painting the internals of the light. Just have to find the black paint and rough up the plastic.

 

i am too scared to try to pull my headlights apart but i think that this will look awesome when done

 

I roughed mine up with a scotch brite pad, worked good. Also used krylon fusion black paint, stuck onto the plastic good.

 

so how did the lights turn out?

 

With the size of the project, I would assume it's still going.

Waiting to see this too.

 

Looking forward to seeing the results.

 

Well, here we go so far on the progress. Been waiting for parts!
This is what's done so far, just waiting on some colour morph led halos and then she's done!





Rigids installed. Now to adjust.

 

Now THAT is an interesting idea. Never heard of someone doing something like that. I'm very curious to see how it works out.

 

Well I have to try things new and think out of the box. But still not done but this is kinda what they look like installed.

 

I guess you will aim them and then put the covers back on?

 

Ya, just waiting for one more part and then set them up properly and Ya seal them up. Soon as I get this last part I'll complete the job and show you the finished project. Just been a huge waiting game on parts. Everything on back order.

 

Are any of those the new Rigid DOT spec lights. Or is that one just the diffused lense?

 

No, not the new DOT lights. Just the new high low rigid. Ya and the diffused is the running light/ turn signal.
