This is the original thread with some directions:

Also, I am thinking that when I get home later, I will take snapshots of the "correct" packaging for the white leds. I don't know if it's a certain batch, or where they're made, but goddamn... RS's quality control suck royal balls.

For this project, my friend and I have gone to a total of like 10 different locations.

Hey man,

Use epoxy to seal that sucker. Silicone sucks man. I've used it for at least 5 headlights and had no problems. My first time I did it on my own car, just started condensation yesterday when i washed my car. BAH!

Oh hum. I will take that into consideration. We sealed the thing pretty good (as in everywhere, hahaha) with the silicone though... lol.

Looks great! I'm sure many local members would be willing to pay you to do this mod to their cars, myself included!

Haha, frik. Where is this meet on Saturday? I can't recall for the life of me right now, but I always have "stuff" going on during weekends =)

forumballer: I will mention that to my friend, as he's the hand of the operation, hahaha.

frank5ever: just ping me and let me know. I am pretty flexible at my office, and as long as I am not in a meeting or client site, we can pretty much do whenever.
