Just incase your wondering what the 3rd car was. S600 AMG


Good Product from ricks and very good instructions.

 

nothing like doing two at the same time. looks good.

 

i want to do this soooo bad. it looks amazing, i am just worried about heating them up and taking them apart, then something going wrong. good forbid they melt or leak and ruin my hids, id be S.O.L. is it easy to do? worth it? i wish you were in fla to help me haha.

 

1-nice job on the clear strips.
2-nice CARS
3-What and where did you get those covers for the front bumper to cover the plate holes?

 

Nice mod, clear is always better than amber.

Did you just took out the amber lens or did you swap them with a clear lens?

Also, is that a ghost I see in one of your pictures in the kitchen behnind the headlights.

 

?

 

i disagree

 

Looks great!! How hard was it to do?

 

looksgreat and nice cars but are you sure you 600 is a amg? i know it has amg rims but not the body kit.

 

^^ what i was thinking also. It has the badging, the wheels, but not the body kit OR big brakes.

But nice job on the lights.

 

Thanks for the compliments. The clear lenses were bought from RicksS2K.com and replaces the amber lenses. This is an easy project to do if you follow directions on Rick's site. But this job isnt for everyone, if your a bit clumbsy, u can screw up the headlights and HID's. I own the S2000 and my friend owns the 350Z, we swap cars once in a while so if anyone wants ture comparisions im the guy to ask.

Bumper plugs = www.bumperplugs.com
Clear lenses = www.RicksS2K.com

The S600 has just the badge and wheels.

 

how long did it take you to do the whole thing?

 

Any tests in the rain?

 

6 hours for 2 cars. I washed my car and drove in rain. No leaks no condensation.

Process:
1. Remove headlights and HID assembly
2. Bake headlights in oven 225 degree for 10min
3. Pry one corner to start seperating housing and lense. Then Start Pulling slowly apart and cutting the glue as yo go along.
4. replace the ambers with Clears (snaps and screws on)
5. apply Black Silicon Adhisive around the Black housing all around.
6. put the headlight assembly back into place.
7. Bake headlight again at 225 Degrees for 10 mins
8. Remove from oven and push the headlights back together.
9. Screw in the housing screws into place, then wrap headlights with towel and tie a rope around headlights tyghtly.
10. rebake again for 7 minutes 225 degree's
11. remove from oven and wait for it to cool and dry for an hour.
12. reinstall headlights on car and wait a few hours for glue to cure.
