Redoing Mark's lights and doing mine and my cousin's lights.

Ok, cool... just an FYI, I wont be helping with prying the headlights apart, I didnt see how yall did it initially, so I dont wanna mess with it. I'll be helping remove the bumpers, and shooting paint.

Who's gonna take the lead on disassembly of the headlights?

b1adesofcha0s · 09-21-2012, 12:27 PM

I guess it will have to be Mark since I wasn't there for anything headlight related except painting.

eastwest2300 · 09-21-2012, 12:42 PM

I dont know man, Im not sure if Mark knows how to do it, we might be stuck.

b1adesofcha0s · 09-21-2012, 12:53 PM

So I guess we'll have to learn. I thought you said you guys had this down to a science? Should have paid more attention

Maybe we should get tips from the guys who actually did it.

eastwest2300 · 09-21-2012, 12:55 PM

I was painting, as they were breaking them down, im not sure how they did it. MyKindaGuise and his friend, they were the ones breaking them apart.

b1adesofcha0s · 09-21-2012, 01:17 PM

Mark says he knows how to do it, so we should be good

dmhenderson · 09-21-2012, 01:19 PM

Yes I know how to do it and it's a 2 man job.

good, I was worried for a sec.

eastwest2300 · 09-21-2012, 01:20 PM

I got the flathead.

b1adesofcha0s · 09-21-2012, 01:23 PM

For the little bit that I was watching, it seemed like getting the lights apart was pretty quick/easy once the sealant was heated up.

Also, what did you guys do to keep dust out of the lenses? My cousin mentioned covering them in seran wrap as a possibility.

dmhenderson · 09-21-2012, 01:23 PM

Oh then we'll need electrical tape too
