I really want to do this to my car but it is a lease...don't know if the dealer will give me a hard time when it is time to turn the car in...

 

It's very easy to find someone w/ an OEM headlights to do a swap w/ u if you have painted headlights. Just a thought..

 

very nice man....just saw it...can this guy do the rear ones as well? I will see the guy here in abudhabi reduces his price otherwise will try to get it done from kuwait

do you have any idea how he opened it by heat gun or oven?

 

Thanks. heat gun to open, oven to reseal *I think*

 

Hey, you guys that are in Kuwait, where exactly are you located? I'm in Iraq right now but will be staying at the Holday Inn in Salmiya on the 5-7. Would love to check out your cars in person if you are close.

 

That's awesome. Our last 2 car meets were in Holiday Inn Salmiya haha
PM me once you're in Kuwait and we'll meet up for sure

 

I would only suggest a heat gun for the seasoned DIY's -- it's too easy to melt things with those things. Wrapped in moist towel and placed in an oven at 225 degrees for 10-12 minutes should be enough to melt the adhesive enough to pry the lens off.

 

Well I would've used the oven method If I was the one doing it but a professional shop did so yeah

 

Will do. I should be there by noon on the 5th. Maybe we can meet up Fri or Sat night. I know I sure could go for some Diva's right now LOL.

 

Wow, what are you doing in Iraq dude? I would like to meet you too, it would be great.

 

I've been a civilian contractor for the last 3 1/2 years. I actually lived in Salmiya (Al nouf apartments behind McDonalds by Marina Mall) for about 8 months. I've had enough and finally taking my butt back home. So are you guys american or what? How long you been in Kuwait? Sorry to intrude.

 

both Kuwaiti here

 

I have been very tempted to do these myself

 

In my last job till Sep last year was visiting Kuwait almost twice a month but anyways might plan it sometime or vice versa

 

yeah

and BTW, they gave me a discount for the lights so it's actually 60K.D ($208).
