Got Bored... Cleared Headlights
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 12:55 pm
was sitting at home today before I have a doctor's appt. noticed it was really nice outside, so I went on out. after sitting on the front porch with my dog for 15 minutes, I decided to pull my Bonneville up the driveway and look around under the hood. originally it was just to see how to replace the fog light bulbs because I had ordered a set of Nokya Hyper Yellows for them. so I removed the headlight assemblies (and ripped out the plastic retainer for those ball sockets so I never have to deal with that again) to check it out. after about 10 minutes of under hood gazing I figured "eh, I got some time. lemme see if I can clear these headlights." so after about 20 minutes on the first one, I got it all apart and removed the amber reflector. originally I did not want to clear the lenses because I thought the amber looked good with the LBM paint. boy, was I wrong. I think it looks 10x better now. so I quickly got the 2nd assembly and finished it and had it back installed in about 10 minutes.
