So i got to work today and let me tell you,this is some hard work. I only got one done at the moment but will be doing the rest tomorrow.I couldn't sand the flukes as i wanted,so the output wont be as you see on clear housings. Pics.

Ok,first thing first,i couldn't sand the flukes like i wanted,so the output isn't going to be perfect.

I took the light off the car and used a blow dryer to heat it up,then pulled the glass off.
First i cut the housing for fitting. Hard work i tell you. You got the get the angle just right or its not going to look good at all.



Now to fit it in.


After getting the angle and fitting right,i used some long screw like bolts and nuts to make it snug. Then put the glass back on and seal it all up. To seal it up,i used a strong plastic tape and a blow-dryer to mold it on as a base for the fiberglass.



And here is the outcome. This is only one light on,still needs adjusting but you can see the difference.





After playing around and doing a little adjusting,it now looks alot better. I also hooked the motor up for the highs. Now this is only one light.

Low


Highs


And a video. Click


And the bay.

austin_dc2: Im sure you can find an oem replacement bumper. But if you want OEM then i say best bet is dealer.
