What Did You Do To Your 6th Gen Today Thread - Vol 3


Recommended Posts

must of been. The wifes car just turned 10k miles, its the 2nd oil change on it.

 

Ah!!!! Not a typo, just confusing. Your post means you change your oil with 10k miles on your car. It reads as if you changed your oil with 10k miles on the OIL.

 

5k OCI is short - might as well use a cheaper oil.

'15 FB25

Magnatec 0W-20 + FU filter (70,517 miles)

RSB, Fr. Strut Bar, Tint, STI BBS, LED er'where

Well finally took the plunge to upholster my Pilliars, Headliner and Sunroof Slider the pieces are in the shop now but will post removal pics.. Let me tell you it was a Biatch.. Took 4.5 hours to get everything out..

"A" Pliars and "C" Pilliars less than 15 minutes.. "B" Pilliars you have to unbolt the seatbelt so took longer. Dropping the Headliner wasnt too hard but all the wiring was laid on top of it and had Spider Web of Glue holding it down so had to cut the glue.. Before totally removing the headliner to get the room We had to remove the Driver's seat and Rear Seat bottom to get clearance to pull it out the Drivers passenger rear door.. Disconnected the battery because because we had to disconnect the seat controls and airbag.. Since the Headliner is out decided to Dyno Mat the Roof as Well.. If anyone want further details drop me a DM.. I'll be glad to assist..9cb143fab63648fd481e86e5ea198599.jpg320885c3678b77a908588bc66ebc8d48.jpg3911dbe025d960882449d7af8d9d770a.jpgfb622ffb6779af34c8dd2913033bc886.jpg8c998ffd0db97265f1586d7b66f71758.jpgdc095995ca9f1fd53036cdb224b91272.jpg

It’s not really hard to open the headlights..

If you have a large enough oven that these headlights can fit in,it would only take 30min to open both,but since my oven is not big enough I had to use heat gun to soften the glue which took me half hour each headlights.

 

As for sealing it up I used a 3m windo-weld silicone,the same ones used on windshields.

There’s a bunch of videos on YouTube on how to bake open headlights

Honestly I’m not a fan of heat gun taking headlights out, it kinda ruined my first headlights and destroyed all the tabs, so had to buy new headlights and sent it off to lightwerkz who has huge ovens and the headlights look like they came out of the factory, can’t tell they were taken apart.

I’ll post some pictures tonight on how nicely they came out and how professional their cable routing was.

Lucky me I have opened my headlights twice already using heat gun and still no melted part of the headlight;)

At that price I'd want to buy new headlights (almost at the point where I need them anyway) and try to open those and do it myself

 

Ya if you can do it yourself then go for it.its really not that hard,if you a oven that you can fit those in it much much faster and easier.

Not sure if my kitchen oven is big enough. based on the picture of him holding the assembly, I'd say probably not. These lights are huge!

Go gloss. I bought matte and gloss and did matte to match my roof then decided I preferred gloss. I kept the gloss roll to do the chrome delete on my next car but it didn’t come with any chrome I wanted to delete. I’ll post it in classified Edited by chowser51
