#23251, "95 headlight housing"


          

Having not really looked closely at my headlight housing, would it be possible to paint somethin in there black to make it resemble the 97 style without sacrificing brightness? If anyone has done this, please post a pic...tia

not too many people have modified the 95-96 headlights... i cant remember off the top of my head what they look like, but if i remember correctly, there isnt too much in there that could be painted. i know that jza modified his... but i cant remember what he did to his.

Yeah, I didn't think there was much to be done to make them look halfway decent...I guess doing the 97 front end swap wouldn't kill me.

well.. if you were interested in keeping the 95-96 front bumper.. there are a very few places that sell projectors for that year.. but for the price youd be paying, you could have had a complete used front bumper and headlights. good luck to ya

hey there, i'm going to black out my 95-96 sytle headlights soon. a friend is going to help me black it out. i think were going to use the paint they use on RC toy cars. its supposed to adhere really well to the housing. keep ya informed on how it goes.

4. "RE: Amber out healights"
In response to message #3

materials:
Butter knife ( thick, strong one )
phillips head screwdriver
oven
ok it only took me like 1 and half hours the first taking an hour the second 30min, ok take your light, pop off all the metal tabs off with butter knife, pre heat oven to 200 deg. ( seems hot but it WILL not melt your lights) let sit in oven for 10 min, pry open assembly, it will be easy b/c the oven melted the silicone, 2 screws hold amber peice in place, remove, them and take peice out put screwed back in to hold the silver peice on, go ahead and clean them out real good while u have them apart, put back together as tight as possible, put in oven for 10-20 more min, pull it out and push it together and hold it for a few min, keep pushing all around it, this is sealing it back up you melted the silicone again now you're letting it try and re- seal, and there ya go you got a sweet headlight

in need of boost
