anyone in the bay area has done black housing headlights before?? or knows how to do it?? would you like to help me out? i really want to make my headlights black housing and i can't afford the $800 from clearcorners.com... i live in cupertino. i am scared that im gonan mess up my lights haha.. inexperienced newbie

 

i opened up my eclipse headlights. its kinda hard. all i used was my hair dryer and a lot of screwdrivers to pry it open. like you, i'm too scared to touch my z lights as the replacements are pricey. i know someone in socal has successfully converted the housing from silver to black (although it wasn't that noticable in the pics). i know rsx owners are doing this as well, might wanna check out clubrsx and see how they open up their lights. good luck.

 

yea.. my brother did it on his IS300.. i guess i could ask him for help but he's in school right now.. his car looks TIGHT but just not as fast as mine hahha.. yea i saw laosifu's DIY.. read it many times but it's different w/o pictures.. and i'm scared to touch them.. my brother found an DIY on is300.net with pictures for every step. hope someone will do that someday =P

 

Well you can message me on AIM if that help.

I done black housing for 6th/7th gen Accords,6th/7th gen Civics and I have to admit. Working on the Z is a *****, but since I done it quite a few times it have gotten a lot easier.

If I remove my bumper again, I will post some step-by-step pics. How does that sound? and yeah I know my pid didn't help a lot.

 

laosifu, dont get me wrong, your DIY is the best thing out there so far and the instructions are very clear... i'm a visual learned that's all.. haha can i have your AIM sn?
