Hi I like the look and idea of your solution but can you describe the process of "Baking" the housing to get the lens off? IE How hot for how long and how did you proceed to pop it off?Infinity-x wrote:Believe it or not they're the stock housings.

Look on youtube for how to reseal headlights in the oven. Same procedure. Warm up in oven to loosen up the rubber, then pry off the lens. Reheat in oven to reapply. You will probably need butyl rubber from somewhere like Morimoto to replace it.mpilihp wrote:Hi I like the look and idea of your solution but can you describe the process of "Baking" the housing to get the lens off?

If you have an orbital polisher it's not too bad. By hand...it sucks and only works so well.mpilihp wrote:Hi thanks, appears they have an LED version but are all out of them now. Im going to look into the projector housings that are all set to go as well as my Lens are all scratched and fogged and I know you can buff them but once you start its a continuous thing you need to keep doing.
