Well one weekend and alot of swearing late i have finished my headlight mod.

They were both very helpfull and very nice in answering even the dumbest questions i may have had. Thank you both a ton. Well for my first time trying anything like this i think it turned out alright here is the end result of my headlight blackened out and LED running lights installed. Enjoy
