2. Dont touch any interior surface with ur fingers, Strip as much old sealant off as u can, Common sense---u need a good Male/Female reseal point.
3. Dry over nite, seal, then let it dry for a couple hrs. Allow 36 hrs. down time.
4.Use Dielectric grease on all seal points ( Ballast,bulb penatrations, ) and on the M/F plugs to main loom.

dude.....we need to plan something...lol
PM if u have questions and I'll give u my fone #. It's not rocket science but takes time and patience, and keeping in mind u have to pull ur wheel wells and front bumper. I have been doing the door handles also.
Solids came out nice with the black on black and mine is the black on silver with black tail lite overlays and soon to be Black spokes on the rims

try to keep the lights as to the center of the oven as possible or the headlight house may melt if its too close to the walls...had a friend melt some of his housing and had to get one headlight replaced!
Well --the main thing is that the opening for the ballast will deform from Round to Oval and u have to warm again to install the ballast and regain the round shape. Its a learning experience.
Do not attempt if intoxicated, U may forget and think u have a Ham in the oven. If that happens, cover the lite with pineapple and Brownsugar and invite the neighbors over
