After doing all this, I have to say, it wasnt easy, LOL. I am car stupid so that kinda makes things worse. The hard part I think is removing the headlights from the car. Once theyre out its friggin' easy as sh*t. You put the oven on 300 degrees, pop one in for a good 15 seconds, take it out, and start prying it open. Not hard at all I dont think.

The BIGGEST pain in the a*s was the 2 bolts underneath the friggin' high beam. Damn did this PISS me off. My friggin' ratchet would barely reach them so that really pissed me off.

Blinkers were a pain in the ass because I didnt realize that they twisted in---I thought they were push bulbs like the wedge bulbs. Oh well, we all learn from our mistakes.

Couldnt find any white signals to match my Silverstar headlights, so I think I am just going to go with orange. Well see what happens.

Headlights look GREAT without that ugly a*s orange reflector strip---DAMN that thing was friggin' nasty looking. Makes the headlights look a lot more clean, etc. Looking forward to ordering red/clear taillights the week after next.
Glad to hear you finally did it, hope I was of some help to you. I also hope you put enough Silicon on and did it like I said. I've got a friend with a 2002 Accord who cleared his headlights and his headlights are FULL of condensation because he did a half assed job on the Silicon.
