hi all.

well after botching my headlights. they dont seem to be sealing very well and condensating.

Im looking at getting some new headlights :)

what aftermarket ones are out there in availability?

Ive seen a few on IM with halo's at $1000 for the pair.

My only real need is they NEED to have a black background.. halos would be nice lol.

what do you all think.

just trying to weigh up the difference in cost of having these repaired - or get new ones.

Most of the IM ones are an exchange deal.

Maybe time for a strip, scrupulous clean & reseal with Sikaflex?

The others seemed to manage it, maybe they have some tips?

Could be something simple...

just pull them out again... heat and split em.. and use some of the glassylite stuff to fix the clear-ness.. and sikaflex/gasket silicone them back together.. you didnt ruin your inside did you??, its just not sealing together properly right??

yes its a bitch of a job but will save you $$$ instead of new/secondhand lights.

anyway thats what i would do.. so far mine arent leaking.. but thats why i did mine to begin with, one was leaking and there was a spider living in there!!
