Diy halos non rs car
This is the first part of the project where we separate the two pieces of the headlight assembly to install the LED halos. I reccomend using an oven that isnt used for cooking for people although many people say it isnt enough heat to cause any harm id rather not find out. We were lucky enough to have a member of the club who happen to use an oven for powder coating and other automotive jobs. It took some doing and some patience but with using the oven it wasnt too hard a job. The idea is to heat up the glue enough so the two pieces can be pryed apart. We found the best results at 275 for a half hour.
Due to the weather we wont be able to complete the project for a while, which will also include heritage grill installation and a few small surprises.
