Thanks el400!! Any SC owners in Texas can take their headlight to Advanced
Auto and have them done the same way.

How much does he charge? Did he disassemble the headlamps?

dieverse, I am in Dallas. The company is here. They came to the body shop as my bumpers were getting done and removed the lights and bought them back in 2 days. 200.00 to re-furbish the old lenses, including install, the LED's, and wiring. It was all done when I got back to the body shop. Freakin' incredible from the yellow old lights that I remember.

I am seriously jealous of your paint

but for your headlight

See how your passengers corner closest to highbeams is sticking out?



There is a shadow to right side (according to picture) of the passenger headlight also on your driver side



But it could possibly be that the headlight isn't fully seated correctly.
** Yup your headlight isn't fully in yet

That actually looks pretty cool, looks better than the standard halo type.
