Anyone got any leaks in the headlights for moisture to get in? I know when people use to do this to their honda headlights some people messed up and didn't reseal the headlights to good and moisture got in when it rained.

I haven't gotten any leaks or moisture for my head lights. I've did them... Um... I dun know sometime in Feb or March??? I forget but it was one of the first mods I did right before I lowered my car. It's been a good 3-4 months now, just got to be sure you sealed the plastic tightly. Use a clamp or fan/hand combo (I remember it was a cold day *brrrr*)

They'll be back on late tonight.

I know this is old, but why couldn't you just tint the inside of the clear plastic part and be done with it. Then you wouldn't need clearcoat, sanding and whatnot...

I would rather spend the time to sand and seal some spray tint than have to worry about resealing headlights. The risk of water entering the housing wasn't worth it to me, at least not without a projector retrofit happening.

I see, thought you might know something that I don't in terms of doing it like that. did you ever finish them?
