Bumper Lights Installed!

I finally received my lights last thursday and installed them yesterday!! All i have to say is good and fast service. Not to mention the lights ...man, do they make a difference. They look MINT on my car. MINT! SO far no problems ..no condensation! I didn't have any size problems also. What problems did you guys encounter?

TOMMY ... WHAT YOU COLDPROBABLY DO IS
1) TAKE HADLIGHT OFF AD SHAKE IT OUT OR WITH A VACUME SUCK IT OUT
2) TAKE HEADLIGHT BULB OUT AND TAKE A VACUME WITH A FLEXIBLE TUBE ATTACHED BY TAPE( DUCK) ( CAN GET AT ANY HARDWARE STORE) AND STICK THAT IN THERE AND MOVE IT AROUNE AND TRY THAT

#2 WOULD BE EASIER CAUSE YOU DONT HAVE TO TAKE FRONT BUMPER OF TO TAKE THE HEADLIGHT OFF

i've got the same problem with the dirt in the headlights. i wish we could just take it apart and clean it. but it's a sealed unit isn't it??? that would be too easy then.

ok. i'll pm him to find out. also, how do you have your neons in your car?? i want to put some blacklights in my car but i don't want them to look ghetto like i see a lot of other people's around where i live. they have theirs hooked up on the ceiling and all. very tacky. i was thinking of hooking them up under the seat or the dash or something. i just want the glow in the car. is the wiring hard?? did you do it yourself, and if not how much did it cost you????
