[QUOTE="Chrix, post: 626598, member: 20930"] Wasn't too happy with the new headlamps. Manufacturer claimed they are eco-friendly :laugh: [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-21-434.jpg[/IMG] So I decided to mod em; Glass housing with the lens. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-19-405.jpg[/IMG] Cut out the existing silicone; [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-19-406.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-19-408.jpg[/IMG] The lens removed, ignore the taped center.. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-13-380.jpg[/IMG] Lay some dark grey stuff over it; [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-13-382.jpg[/IMG] Pulled & cut it to fit; [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-13-386.jpg[/IMG] Got a black eye; [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/2012-08-13-389.jpg[/IMG] Got these vtech'd sealant..
