Only advice is to silicone the **** out of the casing....

he did....he suggests not to do it. otherwise you wont be driving at night very often. dont forget to seal the casing back on real well if you do this project. otherwise you will have some major condensation on the inside.

Yes I did I don't feel like talking about it again

But yes don't paint that part. But what I have done is gotten brighter bulbs (cheaper and easier for now) and I can drive at night I have cleared headlights on order.

Here's my webpage to see outside view of them. http://home.dejazzd.com/mlouie/misc.html
