ok here it is plain and simple...

What are those 3 plastic bumps on the g4 lude's headlight? the JDM headlights dont have it.

Thanks,

i always wondered what those were for...... but i got the JDM headlights anyway....

 

so i guess no one knows? this will be one of those things that have happened but for no apparent reason. Such as the human appendix. lol

its braille for "get the **** out of the way"

 

ahahahahaha! Damn that was funny

 

for aiming

 

Are you talking about the bumps on the front of the headlight? The 4th gen headlights are made out of pure glass. The bumps are there cuz thats how they pull it out of the mold. Plastic headlights dont have them. Are the JDM headlights made out of plastic?

 

no they are made of carbon fiber.. lol. but seriously it is plastic, and that mold thing i had thought of but i doubt that's it, cuz the JDM headlights dont have it.

 

If the JDM headligths are made out of PLASTIC then they wont have it, it doesnt have to be lifted out of a mold. The 4th gen OEM headlight is made out of GLASS. And if it's glass, that is the only way to lift it out of the mold.

 

made of glass? hmmm... ok now, what's the reason they are there?

btw. what kind of glass?

Are you still talking about the bumps??? Read the above post, its there cuz that's how they remove the glass from the mold. That's the mark it leaves behind after they take it out of the mold.

As far as what kind of glass. Dont know dont care it's glass why would it matter.

 

nawww, there is another reason. the reason of it being braille for "get the ***** outta my way" is better.

and yes im still talking about the bumps.
BTW, my bad.. they are both GLASS.

ive heard that those are there for alignment purposes.the factory used those on a fixture to align the front headlights straight.

 

Alignment and mold pulling sounds good to me....

it's brail for "NAAWWWSSSS DDDOOGGG"
