It's all in the details...

Not as hard as thought:

Stock:






I found that just using a hack saw blade by hand is best. dremel may be too aggressive.

Cut 1:


Cut 2:


Cut 3:


Opened:


Filed the edges to make smooth for good glue contact. Make sure you blow out the lenses clear of any plastic crumbs. Switched bulbs and applied a little super glue:


Applied a little clear silicon sealer to keep out the moisture:




Fin:




Took me about 30 minutes per light. I know it seams like a lot of work to change a bulb and if it blows out I will have to repeat the process, but like i said, it's all in the details...

i never understood why they can't just make the bulb replaceable instead of the whole housing.

I did this a while back and used chrome bulbs for a clear look.

Stock is on the left, my modified clear one on the right.
