Lessons learned:

-When you bake headlights, bake them with the clear heat-tempered plastic face DOWN.
-Use the oven, don't use a heat gun.
-Leave yourself plenty of time and to be comfortable, do not attempt more than 2-3 vehicles per-day.
-Everyone loves bonus screws.
-Better Joe Paterno headlights than Jerry Sandusky headlights.
-Coffin wings probably just shouldn't be eaten at all.
-I am really disappointed that no one took a picture of that hilarious "riced out" mustang. We were all tired but in retrospect, it may have been one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen.

I thought we did...but i think it was something as simple as a small grounding screw... because the entire light including the blinkers didnt work... its either that or a blown fuse, which I doubt because Nissans are not known for blowing headlight fuses.

Welcome dude! Im just glad we got everyone resealed before we left. We didnt get home until 9. Were pulling that engine tomorrow at like 8am.lol So tired.

In all honesty I am pretty sure now that we have a system down we can do 3 sets in 6-8 hours though.
