its a good idea, in theory, but it still has 6 days left, and within the last 20 minutes of bidding, let alone 6 days, its gonna get way expensive.

karbosshack · 02-17-2006, 03:05 PM

why would u sell only one side? Without the kit too...is the kit expensive?

RichReg · 02-17-2006, 03:08 PM

LOL!
This guy is selling his 'cause he tried to bake open the headlight to change to the clear corner lens & it didn't work!

shragon · 02-17-2006, 04:07 PM

either that, or got in an accident.

i doubt too it'll be $1 by auction end.

longtran · 02-17-2006, 04:45 PM

i will buy it and try to clear it. please, people in here do not have a bid war with me... if anyone else want it in here, i will bid against you. let me know if you guys are bidding.

how did you try clearing it? did you buy one and do it?? it wont open?? it look like silcon sealing the headlights.

cdheaven · 02-17-2006, 06:39 PM

i really hate to question you, and im not saying that IIIII can open it, or do any better. but the idea of it being IMPOSSIBLE to open, is just mind boggeling to me.
Also. I wouldnt wannna be a gunea pig for this, but on my little brothers 99.5 audi A4. we drilled through the casing in the back, drilled into the orange pieces to break them up. then with needle nose pliers pulled chunks of the yellow out until it was all clear, then siliconed the holes we drilled. they look great.
this might be worth a try.

poldim · 02-17-2006, 07:01 PM

yea, dont waste your money, just let me buy it.

i have used this way to clear my acura vigor corner light. i didnt think of this. i will have to wait and see if its possible.

cdheaven · 02-18-2006, 10:31 AM

well, if someone wants to buy this headlight, or a future headlight, and try the drilling method. i will paypal that person money towards the purchase. it has to be someone with a decent resume of past DIY mods, and someone with a bunch of posts, so i know they wont run away. but the offer is on the table.

poldim · 02-18-2006, 12:48 PM

You buy it, and ship it to me and I'll do it.

A few weeks ago we too my friend's GSX headlights and did a TSX retrofit. Came out perfect...no condensation or blinding. and TSX projectors are one of the best, if not the best, projectors out there.

cdheaven · 02-18-2006, 12:51 PM

is someone here bidding on this, or what? i will glady place a bid, and if i win it, ship it to someone to attempt to remove the amber. but i dont wanna start a bidding war.
