I am curious as to what brand light you used.

I have a set of eagle eyes and have broken 3 pieces off so far after baking for 40-50 min

EDIT: yeah an HOUR worth of heating and I have 4 pieces broken off and the glue hasn't budged one bit

That wasn't known at the time this was made, this was figured out later when other people were attempting it.

As long as you get them from Certifit you'll be good. They have TYC

Maybe you should try asking questions BEFORE you do the work.

Please, show me more threads on this process. My search come up with nothing.

The process is the same no matter where the light comes from, TYC lights are just easier.

Either way it's going to be difficult, taillights are mcuh harder to take apart than headlights
