Red face Head/Tail Light Modding in GTA.

Hey guys,

Been a frequent viewer of the regional forums and was just changing up a couple things on my TL.
I bought TL-S tail lights as part of a group buy a little while ago and wanted to get them ghosted/cleared before i put em in. But i havent found anyone local who can help me out. Been around to some electronic shops (when i did my non-navi to nav mod) and garages (when i changed out my tires and wheels), but no luck.
Thought id give acurazine a try...
Would anyone know anyone local in the GTA who works on head/tail light modding. Id truly appreciate it. Just itching to get the car clean and get a decent camera to get some pics up
Hope you all can help

Mahad

You need your stock tails and type-s tails.

I have never done this before, but I would be down to help if you live near the Brampton or Vaughan area.

Thanks for the link and the offer
I do live in Kitchener/Waterloo which is isnt that far from Toronto/Brampton.
Ive read some other DIYs on the topic and i didnt know it basically involved cutting the fae of one and putting it onto the other
I do have mystock tails on my car and the type-s tails that i ordered and have them sitting aside
but yeah, id wanna get this done by someone professional..dun want water and all getting into it in the future and being out 300 bucks :S
Have you every attempted anything like this?
thanks for the insight!!!

Have not, but if you properly seal them you will be fine.
Just use enough epoxy or silicone. I wouldnt trust anyone other then Acurazine members to refer to with stuff like this because most shops prob. have no idea what your talking about.

Plus when you need to get it done, you wont be able to drive the car because both lights are needed to do it. I would just take a good day and take your time.

Ask for brandon from http://www.retrolite.ca/. Hes up in north Richmond Hill and does good work for reasonable prices.
