Ok well here's the video that explains how to reconnect and disconnect HIDs for anyone in the future its a good understanding of how to handel the bulbs and hook everything up for beginners.

For where your at you must be missing a screw because that piece comes right out I have a sedan which has 3 scres you might have a forth I reccomend you search but ill look for you if you have a minute. also how many screws have you removed?

 

nevermind got it. but how would i cover the amber lense when painting it (or remove it).

masking tape isnt gonna make a perfect circle around it

 

amber signal on a sedan has a screw as well if you have the housing out already it just comes out wrap it in a kitchen towel so you dont scratch it if you plan to paint it i suggest you dont it would look ugly

 

THeres no more screws. Everything is out. Its just there with some wrapping around it not sure what it is

 

put up a few pics

 

thats the back of it.

 

anyone?

wish this diy was more detailed
edit:

**** it. masked the amber lens as best as I can.

 

Oh man bro I'm praying you didn't mask it sorry I had a job interview is it too late or u still need help, you should post this in the RLQ thread or PM me or pappa (no homo)

 

I masked it... Didn't coem out perfect but not bad

why?

anyways, u gguys think this is enough sticky/silicone?

Its as close as it'll come. It seems sealed, but not as tight as it was before...

 

Well 1st its ugly to paint the chrome on the turn signal but each to there own second because I assume you car about your car and would rather do it properly (if the signal comes out on the coupe) then take a chance and messing up post pics wanna see the end result

 

I tried to get off the amber lens I didn't know how man and I didn't wanna break it trying something i dont know what to do...

And I thought everyone paints the chrome around the amber lens? You saying I should of left the amber housing non painted? Wouldn't it look retarded? I'll post end pics. I only did one headlight. Gonna do the other one tomorrow. Wasted too much time on that housing plug and asking questions/not knowing what to do... :/

edit: see the guy below me has it painted...

 

buffed mine out a lil bit with plastx...a few pics. now need to get the 3m clear bra wrapped on it so it can stay lookin good

 

nice buff job!


and mark your correct i thought the coupe was like the sedan but ya it wouldnt look right unpainted

 

never realized i didnt post pics




gonna restore the lenses soon as stated
