why, what u gonna do?

 

Dual Halos suck...they fog up right outta the box and you wanna take them apart?? Have fun suckin moisture outta your headlights everytime it rains or gets foggy. I would rather do a retro fit to the OEM headlights.

 

dunno...

just curious...

throw em in the oven for like 5 mins at 250. but even after i resealed them they fogged. so just drill 3 holes in em.

 

yes people have. infact Jay (windowtint) has and paint matched it on the inside. it looks freakin awesome. after seeing pics of it, i think all dual halo owners should. thats just my opinion though. but to answer your question, yes people have.

funny. . .i dont know if im the only one but mine havent fogged at all

 

Yes infact I have them apart right now to upgrade the leds in the halo's. Why do you ask?

 

i was thinking about upgrading the halo's leds myself...

hows the projecto coming?

sen-

 

well I got my white 20,000 mcd leds from ebay. and I dissembled the lights. I finished one set running 1 pair of led per wire with a 220 ohm .5 watt resistor.
I only need a couple hours more but I've been busy so I haven't finished.

 

hey nick you have any pics or advice on how to take them apart?

 

i'd like to see pics and def a write up after the project...

good luck

Take off the grill, bumper, headlight, wire harness, w/ appropriate tools. 10mm socket/wrench, ext. , philips & small flathead screwdriver.


I went ahead and took out the Projectors, LED, but not the HALO's (just to see how things are.)



Prepare for the oven


In the Oven, 250 F for 5-7 min. (gauge temp. & min.) Easyoff oven cleaner optional j/k I know...it's dirty.


Pull apart Lens/cover w/ your fingers. (do not use sharp object) Be patience and work it. If need be, Re-heat in the oven to soften the seal.


Clean out/off old seal.
Use clear or black waterproof/resistant silicone sealer. (original seal is Black)
Apply seal and run a good bead. Clean off excess run off w/ finger & wipe clean.


After putting the Lens/Cover back on, check the contact w/ Lens and the housing that it sit's properly. I put the housing under a couch cushion, and I added some weight to it so that the Lens/Cover will set firmly on the housing. (Cure time depend's on the product.)

Re-assemble Projectors and LED's


Put everything back as it should, and there ya go!


Hope this helps in some way.

 

wish you posted this back when i had mine but not regreting the HIDs i have now....

good write up and should be FAQed!!
