taking apart head lights to install HID's and other stuff
ok i have tried to do it but i am too afraid of breaking them i broke my tailights doing them, so i dont want to hurt my head lights
i want to know how much someoen will charge me to: take head lights apart and send them back....
however you cant break them
or if someone has a better way of taking them apart then that write up i read from that supra site that would be good too....
i just dont want to hurt my lights they are brand new
i need to take them apart to take off the metal shielding so i can use my HID's more effectively i am also contemplating doing the black housing mod
any help is appreciated

the tutorial you see on the supra site is actually a good one. just remove all the clips around the headlight and i think there is one screw on the back.
stick that bad boy in the oven or even dip it in boiling water to loosen up the glue.
trust me, headlights are easier to open than taillights simply because they're smaller.

it is important to understand what a classified is. you are WTB a service. a classified is any transaction of goods or service. Does this answer the question?

ill jump in and volunteer
if you are uncomfortable with opening the headlight still, ill take them, open them, paint the reflector whatever color you want, reseal them and send them back to you. If theyre dirty ill polish them up a bit too. drop me an email if youre interested. Thanks
