headlight clearing question? need answer asap
ok before i seal these suja's up and put on the ride i have 1 question. there is a peice inside the headlight that surronds the bulb, do i take that out or do i leave it in place, i think it is called a difuser? i'm sealing them up on sat so the sooner i get an answer the better. all the help is appreciated.

Rep Power: 0 Definately DO NOT REMOVE THE DIFFUSER, it was engineered for a reason, many dumbasses removed them and they claim it to be brighter but technically the light is scattered apart, the diffuser is used to focus the beam. Its like the Eurolites (25$ a pair), they look brighter than other hyper white lights (like those middle quality ones) because Eurolites are scattered while many better quality bulbs focus its beam.

Rep Power: 0 I want to get mine cleared too 
Maybe we should all get a bunch of us together and profurious can show us / help us do it
p.s. WTF is with those clips all over the car (holding plastic/rubber parts off), when I was wiring my sidemarkers, I broke a couple. I can't get them off without breaking them! The instruction manual says take a flat screwdriver to pull it up, but that never works and they break. grrr

Instead of prying with a flat screwdriver try turning it. It put the flat screwdriver in the lot at the side and turn clockwise, instead of prying.
The actual clearing of the lights doesn't worry me too much, i am more concered about the bumper removal and re installation.
Peace

Rep Power: 0 If you guys are worried about removing the whole bumper just bend pull it off you can tilt it forward and have enough room to take out the headlights. It's the same process as taking off the bottom except you don't take off the clips at the bottom which are a pain to get off.
