hey is anybody in the DC area? im here for an event till wed afternoon when i head back to NYC and i figured i may as well see if anyone is around and wants to meet up. i still need to put my HID fog lights in, and change the low beams bulbs, if someone here can help, thatd be awesome =)

i have a 2010 vortex blue, which is pretty rare. come see it hahaha

 

I'm in Arlington, right outside the city. Won't have time to meet up with you. But enjoy your stay, great fucking city!

 

Hey Dave,

So first pic needs to be rotated 90 degrees clockwise...but in the picture, the bottom part is the filter, so if you're looking from the middle of the engine bay, you're looking for a circular piece with edges sticking out of it in small flat lines. Basically that red thing that I circled. I have a better picture below.



So here's a closer view of the piece I'm talking about. This is the cover to the back of the headlight housing. You'll need to take out the air filter to access that part easily. It's a couple of 10mm rachet screws and then you just pull the whole thing out. The thing I circled below, is what you grab on to and push/pull counterclockwise to unlock. After it shifts maybe...10-15 degrees, it'll stop and then you can pull off the back cover and you'll see the power cord to the back of the HID. Just twist that counter clockwise, pull it off, unlock the hinges to the bulb and voila.


Last picture I have is of the passenger side. That side apparently was missing the cover to my headlight housing so I'm gonna have to get one from the dealership. They owe me In any case, the part I circled is where the cover should be and its easily accessible without taking anything out.



Look behind that stick in the middle of my red circle. If you still have trouble let me know...maybe I'll try making a video for you.

 

yo dave, i forgot, where were you in jersey? hoboken?

 

Nah I'm up in fort lee and Stak thanks for the pics, I'll try it asap

Live to hit I'm currently sitting at a park in Georgetown hahaha

 

I'm at work You should reward yourself and get a cupcake at georgetown cupcake!

 

i cant do that to myself hahaha. i go to the gym daily and i run 4-5 miles plus lifting. cant kill it with cupcakes cause i cant workout while im down here. isn't DC cupcakes better though? thats the one on food network or whatever

 

same place, the actual name of the store is Georgetown Cupcakes. Not sure why they named the tv show DC cupcakes, maybe cause not everybody would know what Georgetown they were referring too?
