Well, Smartie and I finally got around to removing the yellow corners. We found some FAQs and how tos from a Suburu forum.

What we found best was baking them at 170 degrees fahrenheit for 5 mins to get them slowly warmed up, then 200 degrees fahrenheit for another 5 mins or so.

After we peeled them apart, there was enough sealant there to close the housing back up. Rebaked at 200 degrees for another 10 mins. Pushed the two sides together, then let cool for 30mins, then rebaked again to ensure that it was properly sealed. Then let cool again.

Baking was the scariest part. It took a while at first because I kept opening the oven every minute! I was scared the housing would melt to the baking sheet! There was no meltage at all actually!

Our camera ran out of batteries so at one point we took pics with Smartie's cell phone.

Here are the pics of the whole process! Oh yeah. Smartie debaged a small Hello Kitty decal on the front bumper since she got an Emblem instead.

 

 

 

 

haha nice wouldnt a heat gun work aswell with alot less worrying about cooking you head lights

 

tried that with no luck. It would only heat certain areas. The baking allowed for even heat distribution. I was able to just pry a little with a flat head screw driver then using both hands just to pull each side apart in one slow controlled motion.

 

well they look sweet what bulbs did you guys put in cause i have some PIAA's for my head light bulb but not all that happy with them

 

it looks clean.. but by law you need to have yellow reflectors in front and red reflectors in back, visible from the sides of the car. That's a big reason to get hassled by the cops here in CA.. not sure if thats the law where you live..
good job regardless

 

yep we get hassled here too! but we said screw it! lol. We knew what we were getting into.

For headlights we are using the Luminics Pure Blue 6000k, and for signals the PIAA xtreme white bulbs.

 

nice choice i might just slap in an hid kit and go blind people

 

think you guys could take a few low light/night shots with the different light levels...ie. parking, low beams, high beams, and turn signal..? just curious because i always wanted the clear outter corner markers to be clear and when i ordered my first set of projectors they came clear but the halos didnt work and the second set they sent me now have amber corners...

oh yea and nice job very jdm looking

 

looking good !!!

 

you should also be careful because some insurance claims may not be covered because your car is not legit.

 

how do they look close up as far as weather or not theres an obvious gaping hole where the reflector should be? Because if it looks like somethings obviously missing...i wouldn't like that.

 

nice job ,I wish my wife was into this stuff, I spend 500 bucks on upgrading my suspension ,she says thats a waste of money....she spends 500 bucks on a DB bag etc. and I say thats a waste of money....it's a never ending battle....keep up the good work....
