The top body mount LCD is a must for on the fly changes. Learn all the quick adjustments.

I guess I was spoiled...that's what ebelp told me he loves the most too, and the 30D had that too so I'm used to it.

It's the light. I'm actually super tan right now. And that arm hair is all cut at a half inch. Trust me it could be worse.

Glad to finally have those zkwrs in! What did you guys use right before sealing it up to get dust off of the lens? I've been wearing gloves for everything but lint is all over the outside of those things.

Ok well that's what I've been doing. All I've got left is to mount the angel eyes onto the projector bezels then put it all in the oven!

I tackled way more then I could handle this weekend. Especially with a party that I got wasted at in the middle.

FINALLY conquered a stuck oil pan bolt out and changed my oil, completely. My 3 month old slave was leaking so I put in a new one. Did both the front and side engine mounts. Did the TB bypass mod. Installed 5k HID to the accord fogs. Painted my CAI and strut bar. And then took apart the lights and did all that crap.

TIRED.

The 80mm halos were too big btw. But it worked out in the end

I just cut a slit into that triangular "tab" on top of the projector bezel rings. They practically hold the halos in by themselves! Lol

I'm not sure I'll be able to "tie" them in like I wanted to. What kind of epoxy/glue did you use on yours Aaron?

a low odor 2 part clear epoxy from autozone or some other car part place. worked great.

make sure you use low odor so that it doesn't gas off inside the headlight and fog up the lenses.

Yea that's why I had to redo my lights the first time a few years ago. I used Gorilla Glue. Damn fumes made the inside look like shit. Lol

I considered using RTV last night. I also, for a minute, considered not even putting the projector bezel ring on and just slapping the angles eye straight to the frame.
