Thanks

Finally got around to it. Let me know if you want it tinted darker.

That is the hotness right there!! I don't think I will be going much darker b/c I want a good amount of light in front of me. Thanks man! Helps light a fire under my ass to get going.

No car seats for me anytime soon

I did a little work on roughly trimming the headlight housing for the new TSX projector. I still need to go just a bit deeper, but the finish line is in sight. Once I'm as deep as i want to go the remaining perimeter wall will be trimmed flush. I'm thinking of locking in the lens portion of the projector in with high heat silicone so it can be removed for whatever reason and then tap the holes with a machine screw thread so the back half will attach that way. I would have finished trimming her up but my dremel’s plastic disc sh** the bed so it will have to wait until tomorrow

Hey ive got a question, i want to remove the orange piece out of the side of my denali's headlights. How do i do it?

You have to put the headlight in the oven to heat up the glue sealing them. Then you have to pry them open. This is often called the "joey mod." Look that up for more detailed instructions. Whatever you do however, do not use superglue or any glue that fumes to seal them back up because it will ruin the lights. Also, while open, wash the lens well and they will look like new.

I would be more specific, but I did this mod to my escalade before I installed my aftermarket projectors. I'm not sure the specifics of the denali lights.

Do it. Your truck will look great with this done. The orange corner kills the clean look IMO

Also, If you're going to pry them, you may want to have them sprayed with the Black Raven gloss at a body shop, or just spray them black at home.
