Default To all that said it couldn't be done!

I opened the stock headlights. It was very easy. I used a dremmel after that I cut a hole into the reflector and put my projector in. I know what the next question is. How are you going to seal it? The army makes this stuff call proseal. You mix 2 chemicles together and it makes rubber cement x 1000. Looks pretty good. It's not done yet, I still have to make the shroud for the backshell and put the light together. I'll post pics when it's completed.

I heard around that you couldn't do stockers because they don't reseal well. That's why we have sealants.

Nah the stuff they used to glue the lens on made it one peice. Kinda like airplane model glue. You have to cut it open. I cut it on the black backing. I think I will keep the reflective housing. it looks pretty good. Although it all depends on if I f up the other one. Pics will come when I can get a better camera. And Air Force sucks. j/k
