Clearing Headlights Question?????????/

I just took the amber piece out and now I'm trying to put the lense and the housing back together. Should I put the clear reflector that was in the amber section back in,or leave it out. Also any suggestions on how to get the housing and the lense back together,it's not really lining up.

Thanks for the help.

I had to go to OSH and bought a clamp for 20 bucks. Used alot of silcon and let it sit over night. Mine turned out pretty good.
hope this helps

Mine turned out fine. I just siliconed it back together and put those little clamps that were on there. Let is sit there for a while and pop it back in the car. But everything lined up on mine. Try it again, carefully.

I let it sit for half an hour threw it in, no problems after that.

what?? your reflector came out? Mine never came out when i cleared them... Yes, you should keep it in, that is a safety thing, plus it looks cool in the sun!

Yeah, the clear reflector shouldn't come out when you pop out the amber peice.

Do I need a Amber bulb for my turn signals to pass NYS inspection? Or is it still illegal because there is no more amber in the headlights. I went to Strauss and they dont even carry the turn signal light in amber. Any suggestions on where I can purchase one.
