GTBoarder Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 So I decided to do this. But I went one step further and blacked the turn signal reflector as well replacing the stock bulb with a led. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/25/51487c6c40527a0d06b6d518ef68a56d.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/25/60b958ba081dcb7fe8e01a7b30290b6b.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/25/bf7fa214c601e93e1599ae06bb2b9175.jpg Now I have no idea what I did but I no longer have amber with headlight or parking lights on. I like the look and the led turn signals are definitely bright enough. Also 4500k hids for low beams Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdfreetuna Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 so can you get pulled over for not having the orange reflector pieces in your headlights? does anyone know exactly what the law is? and has anyone blacked out their headlights then replaced the yellow reflectors back into the headlights? I almost got rejected for inspection in MA for cleared headlights. I have an orange bulb there though, so wth. My options are either put the yellow back in, which I don't have so I'd have to find some, or use amber clear vinyl wrap cut into a strip in the side of the headlight. This is what I'm thinking of doing. Of course I'm going to attempt a more urban inspection station next year where hopefully they respect a little bit of customization. My wife is Puerto Rican, she suggests I go find some Puerto Ricans lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZedX Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Anyone painted the parking light housing also? Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggreen96 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 STICKY NOTES are the perfect amount of tackiness to avoid chrome peeling. Even the blue 3M tape peeled my chrome around the 3 prongs on my 180k housings. Ended up painting the rings, but still needed the turn signal area masked and the sticky notes(I used some noname promotional drug brand notes) worked great.

jkvancity Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I know this was posted a while ago, but has anyone had any issues with taking apart their headlights and having them fog up or leak after a bit? I'm worried that re-sealing them won't entirely get them properly water-tight sealed and a couple cold days will have them leak... I live where the weather gets somewhat cold in the winter and it rains a lot (similar to Washington State). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggreen96 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 So far so good on mine. I used extra silicone sealer putting them back together though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fedaykin Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Make sure the butyl is covering all the way around the seams. Get a roll of butyl just in case. I haven't had issues re-using the existing one (yet). Test before installing on car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
