Also, I would seal it with some black silicone when you're done, otherwise you may get water in the light and have to do everything again to clean it out (I did). I have some black caulk if you want it. If you could come over nowish, I'll walk you through it. I'll be making dinner so I prolly won't touch anything LOL but I'll tell you what to do if you want. Gimme a call at 720-1829 if you want.

One look and you will see what I am talking about.

I think someone opened the headlights up , painted the inside black , pulled the ballasts out , plugged the bulbs into the ballasts , put the clear cover back on then sealed them back up and installed them , because I just took a look at the wiring and someone didn't do to well of a job. How else would someone have gotten over sized blinker bulbs in ?

That's the only scenario I can come up with.


I just got back home.

Had to help someone move a couch , what fun that was.

Yea I am up for a visit , if your done eating that is.

Can bring all my tools.

I cant do it here as I live in an apartment complex and they don't allow working on your car in the parking slot.
