117270, oh super! Posted by Wyatt, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
LAST EDITED ON 17-Feb-01 AT 07:16 PM (PST)I bought some of those retarded white bulbs and it blew up in my headlight casing. How the hell do I remove my headlight and clean all the little pieces of glass? Damn crappy blue light piece of crap :( Wyatt Leras http://www.turbogs.com 98 Eclipse GS Star Stage 5,000 Turbo kit

Hmmmm...I'd give a real powerful shop vac a try. If that doesn't work, then sorry, that's all I could come up with. Good luck!

youve got a few options. first off though,did you touch the bulb with your hands? if so theres your problem. anyway, you have 3 options. 1 - the easiest but riskiest - use a coathanger with some tape wrapped around it backwards and try to stick the tape on the glass, but you run the risk of scratching the headlight 2 - easier but requires some time - take out the headlight and bulbs fill the light with water then let it drain out the hole, but you will have to allow at least a day and a few minutes with a hairdryer to evaporate all the water - this is safe, i have done it. 3 - the hard way, seperate the lens from the housing as if you were gonna clear the turn signals. and you can clear the turn signals while you have it apart if you want to. if you need info on how to do this i can help you as can a few others on this board who have cleared their lights http://www.geocities.com/blue2gnt

Hey cyan or anyone else that's done it, how do you clear the turn signals, i've never even looked to see if it was hard or not. 96' RS IM: Deze2g "Friends don't let friends drive stock." http://www.angelfire.com/geek/dezeclipse
