just cleared my headlights....that was an experience

well it was very easy. i burned my fingers for sure. it wasn't hard i was suprised how fast the second one went compared to the first. only problem was it was hard to commit to doing it. it feels so wrong but u just got to go at it and do it. the honda bond shit is nasty stuff, cut it with a knife and that was the end of that. another thing was that i got a print on the chrome piece inside so i used a lil windex and that shit took the chrome right off. so DO NOT USE WINDEX. other wise just follow the diy. only problem now is to find lights for that match some what. right now i got just white bulbs and the color is just off. looks amber almost. i'll post some pics in the next few days.

wel lmine fogged up from the wet carboard. so i let them sit out for an hour or so b4 i installed them back in the car. so far all looks well. hardest part is getting them off. seperating the lights is just a pain but not hard at all. def need some one helping you though.

UGH. that stuff takes forever to do. I gave up doing it. oyeah my friend got his cleared.. it took him all day to do, and he warned me about the windex thing too. he took chrome spray paint and colored over that part. it cleared out the blue reflections from his bulb. so it looks really clean now. i dont have that kind of patience to do it thgouh.
