$80 is a decent price.

It's really a pain in the butt to open up the headlights, and then try and do all the work within a few hours while the customer waits.

Clearing out the amber takes a bit of dremel time. Then you either need to repaint that piece, or shape a piece of clear reflector to fit in the circular portion.

Then if you're going to put in projectors, you deal with all sorts of new issues. Put in dual projectors, and it's even crazier (I'm already 2.5 months into that project, and still not done).

Anytime you do work on someone's lights, you're pretty much taking on liability for any problems that they might have, whether it be from equipment failure, cops, other motorists, etc.

I also think $80 is a good price. Its a real pain in the butt do open up the headlights and seal them closed again. I would have done it already... still might... but the only thing that is holding me back is that I have no time during the weeks, since I work all day, and my weekends are also busy, because thats the only time outside of work, that I have.

savefatkids, I have some ideas I want to run by you when we meet at this thursday's Chino Hills meet. But before I spill the beans... you're going to have to promise me to keep the whole process of doing this mod a secret!!!!
