quick question. i reinstalled the headlights, however there are gaps (pretty large ones) between the lights and the fenders.

all the screws and everything lined up so i figured i was good, and put the bumper on, however there are gaps. it got dark out so i couldnt play with it.

is there adjusting i have to do to make these lights fit flush?

Same thing happened to me on the one and I ran out of time. Had to throw it back in the oven i had 1 part of the light that had got caught on something. Everything looked good until it did not line up when I installed in.

yea if the housing is not correctly positioned with the lens then the gap will be there... If your screw holes line up but there is a gap then its definitely the housing and lens positioning. Simply put back in oven and then try to slide it into place, if that still doesnt work then simply seperate the two and check for objects in the silicon. Once checked, place back into oven for a little bit of time since u just took it out and then place lens on again.

Now, if your screws arent evening lining up then take headlight out, check back of housing to make sure nothing broke and carefully line-up all the bolts to the holes on the car. Also be sure to slide the headlight in as there is a black piece that has to be sled in a certain way.

dude that black housing is sex. looks awsome. great job. i really want to do this with my nismo and also do black trim on the tail lights like this guy did. http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._3025939_n.jpg

Why do some lights look like the top shroud has an amber color and others don't? Do you have to replace the bulb?

No. The bulb that's in there is a double filament bulb. One of the wires coming out of the socket is cut and sealed from factory. All u have to do is extend that wire and connect it to the yellow cable that goes to ur side marker.

Ok last time I tried it with a heat gun and didn't work

I'm going to bake it in the oven but can someone show me how to get the wires because I didn't know how last time I tried opening those devils!!

How long do you bake it and at what temperature if using an oven?

this should be useful.

Anyone can show me how to strip the headlights in details a video will be awesome if someone is planning on painting his headlights

Okay so 250 degrees for 8-12 minutes is what I found. I'll be doing this tomorrow along with my aerojacket install, so wish me luck! :tiphat:

GL. Take your time and think twice before each step lol. It took me about 10hrs.
