Ok finally got the nerve up to do this. It was a little scary with the thought of putting my headlights in the oven but its finally done. Took about 3 hours total which was much faster than I though it would go. I will be posting a tutorial in the next couple days. Also if anyone wants this done to theirs I will do it for a small fee. Just send them to me and I will have them out back to you the next day.

Thanks Conceyted for coming over and helping and thanks Farseide for the help over the phone and giving the final push to do this.

Here are the pics:

Heres the scary part:

Thanks guys!

Dirn if you really are interested you can send them to me and I can do them for you. I know you have a 2nd car. Let me know.

 

[DiRN]

Haha, I'll probably do it myself once you get the How To done. But if I decide I'm not up to it, I'll definitely send 'em your way

NICE JOB I LIKEEEEEE............. I don't think I could disassemble my baby like that tho. It turned out pretty good.

 

[dave079]

Thanks man! I didnt think I could do it either. Just had to get some balls and not think about it too much!

Wow. The Clear look is great! I don't think I'd have the nerve to do mine.

what did he cook? I see that the orange was made clear...how? Does this melt anything?? Nice look though. Brave....scariest pic was of Z without eyeball!! YIKES!!!

 

[DiRN]

The basic process is:
Put the headlight into the oven to melt the glue.
Open the headlight and remove the orange strip.
Reseal the headlight

I'm sure you can, although I don't know if I'd recommend using the headlights ever again
