Thanks. It's Ok. I've seen a few people with these tips. Both of them were Audi. The guy pulled up next to me at a light. Thought he was trying to pass me. Rolled down his windows and said "Check out my tips."

Tell me, please! How could not make out the headlamp glass breaking down or is it impossible? Did you heat or enjoy solvent? What solvent was it? Can you do it without damage of lights? Thank you! This is really cool!

Short answer: no. Not at all. You will need coding & additional parts for conversion...

John, I don't think that'll help man. The red will absorb too much of the light, even if the chrome surfacing is reflecting light, you're still looking at losing over 50% of light easily.

Better than whatever the lighting output is now. I coudlnt tell the lights were on when I was driving but from the outside, it is SIIIIIIICK! LOL. 50% more would be perfect.
