drewvdubber Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 hope you like annoying whooshing noises not running a turbo, just trying to get a little boxer noise out of it. if i dont like it, i can always just put the airbox back in and use the piping for something else. i shouldnt hear any "whooooshing".

Fantastipotamus Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Arg, my same passenger-side light has condensation again. It seems like a hot engine parked over wet tar makes the water evaporate right up into the light. Maybe I should reheat it, get the water out, and really seal the bottom half up well.

Fantastipotamus Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 maybe or definitely? Definitely going to reheat it to remove the condensation (may not have to pull it apart though, all depends on how dirty the inside of the plastic front is), probably going to seal the bottom very well. At this point, it's happened in the passengerside one twice now, so I think my driver side one is okay. *crosses fingers* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whobaru Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Open 'em up one more time, seal the entire thing with crazy amounts of sealant, and move on with your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ej25_TS Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I'm asuming the 08 is the same process? Or in the headlight housing diffrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gitster Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Housing are quite different, I would assume the process is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodtimes Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 just a little thought, or just me crying. but i have cleared out my 07's. then the driver side fogged up. built up condensation that dripped down the inside of the bulb/housing. So reheated and opened. Seems the reheating cooked on the wwater stains. Now they cant be removed from the inside of the housing. Ok. Thats after I rebaked it twice and opened it twice. needless to say you can only open these things so many times. So after explosive frustration that led to my headlight being destroyed by sledgehammer. I had to purchase aftermarket lights which suck btw. Even bought another stock 07 headlight to try again. actually melted the housing in the oven while baking it the same way I did the others, 4 times. 280 for 5-8 minutes. its never been a problem before, anyway, I am over clearing my headlights. Its just my luck i suppose. I have done other mods. like the HID lights, changing different CAI's, installing perrin BOV, radiator shroud, disabling DRL's, strut top support, ecu reflash, skid plate install. But baking stupid headlights and resealing them seems just to not be my thing. So anyone that wants to do for me I will pay and provide materials lol.....

LMVT Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Wow man that really sucks, I baked mine on convection at 190 for about 12 min. Eveything came out perfect the first time...so far so good, no moisture yet (crosses fingers). If you want someone else to do your lights, check these guys out. http://www.lightwerkz.net/ 2005 LGT w/ dom. 3 + meth - Sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detslider Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I blacked mine out, it immediately started showing condensation. I opened it up again and a couple tablespoons of water cane out. Sealed them back up and condensation reappeared. I put them in the oven a third time but now only squeezed it together more. No more condesation.
