[QUOTE="FivepointSlow, post: 1447267, member: 18995"] Got the projectors into my headlights after fighting for entirely too long getting the lenses off. The combination of me having no experience with opening headlights and retrofitting them and the fact these headlights are atleast 8 years old maybe even older posed a challenge. But I finally got them apart and didnt damage the housings edge too much. It should seal up well and I will add some caulking of some weather proofing kind in addition to the headlight sealant to prevent any potential leaking issues. I need to restore the lenses and I'm thinking I want to clear coat them if anyone has any recommendations on a product to do that with? Also waiting on new headlight pivots and adjusters for these headlights and I'll be able to align and tighten down the projectors all the way and then seal them up for good. Anyways here they are lenseless. I decided to keep the black trim inside them instead of painting it white. I loved the look of them on the car before and I don't see a need to complicate this headlight build when I'm already happy with the look.
