Headlight mod

Finally built up the courage to do it. Looks ok I suppose. Driver side corner seems like it's going to fog up so I'll fix that one of these days......I'll get some better pics when it doesent suck outside.....

NICE!! finally got it done eh?

Looks great. I did my 06 corners the same way (painted the outside ring as well) and Ive been wanting to put them back on instead of these blacked out clears.

good job.

Idk I guess 8 hours of sitting wasn't enough and the wind crossing a bridge got the best of them. Live and learn I suppose. Got to find some corner lights though cause they are wide open. Got my grill guard on too. Just don't know about the kc's I got

The guard looks great on your truck.

I ususally let mine sit overnight, with about 10-15 rubber bands tight on them.

Make sure you are generous (spelling?) with the silicone, but NOT TOO generous. Black silicone FTW

Im modding two sets of corners soon, clear and 06, let me know if you are interested.

I followed directions from another site. Mine did just fine, then I sold them to tkennedy.

....send me your lights and ill mod them...for a fee of course lol

oh btw steve, did you check to see if the fog was on the outside? I woke up one morning and looked at my headlights, saw fog and was like "WHAT!?" but it was just on the outside.
