Do I need anything else to make this happen other than what we have planned?

(not counting the LEDs of course)

We should have everything we need as long as people bring everything that they said they were gonna bring. We should be good to go. That heat gun is gonna make life sooo much easier.

Yeah I was amazed at how quickly it zapped my front emblem off on my '09. You have to be super careful though. It will melt paint/plastic/your face if you aren't good with it.

Isn't a heat gun quicker/safer? Our Service guy doesn't want to give it to me for 2 weekends in a row but I can buy one for like $15.00 so it's not a big deal. I'd be willing to invest in a heat gun - I'm sure I'll need it again in the future.

Actually the opposite. The oven method is much quicker and safer for the headlights. The oven allows you to heat the whole headlight at once vs doing it one small spot at a time. Also you can control the temperature better and are less likely to spot burn or melt the lens.
