its way too much unless your rich then who cares...what year LS do you have?

Id rather have peace of mind and have someone whos done it before do it for me.

If they could be baked open i would do them. Im good with electronics and wiring but not so much with cutting and things of that nature.
 
I dont think cutting would be that hard really. I mean im just assuming but all you have to do is not cut to deep right, and if you do cut to deep you would hit the chrome projector. Am i right or is there something else im missing?
 
When I did mine. I baked them at 220 for 12 minutes. Took a razor and and cut down the seam of the headlight. Just appiled enough pressure to cut through the selent. Pulled them apart.

You cut into the bezel (not benzel :lol: ) if you go too deep..

Ok sure the bezel. But all you have to do is be patient, and cut shallow. If your not cutting through cut a little deeper. I'm sure you'll be able to tell when you cut though correctly
 
Yeah you'll be able to tell. You cut in to the clear headlight housing if you go too far but it's not bad if you do a little because it will get covered with silicone when you seal it up.

So it's what I thought. If I had the gen2's I'd be doing this myself.
 
I sent Lightwurkz an extra set of Gen2 lights and 500.00.
It took them 2 months to do them and when I got them back they had painted the bezels light blue instead of the light green it was supposed to be.

I recut them open and redid them myself.
I used a 4 1/2 masonry diamond blade on on dewalt electric handgrinder with no guard and it took 5 minutes to cut them apart following their seam.
You only have to cut 1/8 to 1/4" deep

A dremel tool works well for those not skilled enough(I have 35 years handicraft experience including being a bodyman for a while) to use a powerful handgrinder safely and accurately.

Don't bother with Lightwurkz.
Use hot glue to spot weld the headlights back together.
Be careful not to drip hot glue inside the housing.
Then either finish it up with more carefully applied hot glue or run a bead of PL Premiun polyurethane available in a tube from the paint section at Home Depot.
Let dry overnight if using PL.
Paint over dried seam with black paint.
 
Damn you droped $500.00 & waited 2 months for them just to f up your headlights...that sucks.
 
Just like the CF bezels from them.. TDUB sent his housings and they lost them.. How do you loose someone else's crap!?!? I'll buy the rings from them, but I personally won't have them do any of my work

Ya it sucked but I got over it and seeing where they cut them made it easy to redo them.
I should have just bought the rings and done them myself in the first place.
 
How much is Scoop charging. As for the people sending them off to Scoop do you have another set of headlights or you have another vehicle I presume?
 
I believe I have already solved this dilemma in another thread? Do you have any flashlights? :D
