Oh shyt, did you guys check all the connections? How the fuk did that happen?

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.

Also:

-Female pitbulls and male dachshunds have gender role confusion issues.
