tomorrow im going to attempt to fix my leaking high beam since it blew out like 3 bulbs so far. and what im planning to do is submerge the high beam housing in water, find where bubbles are escaping then reseal that area. my question is will this work? and if so what kind of sealent would work? or is there a better to do it?

QUOTE(Akira_g4 @ Mar 27, 2007 - 2:11 AM) [snapback]540194[/snapback] damn im guessing i cant get around the whole boiling water/ oven technique. i was hopeing there was a way to fix it without using boiling water or the oven. oh well now i gotta find a way to get my mom to let me use her kitchen yeah, do you have a heatgun? set it on a lower setting and slowly heat up the glued areas.... and then slowly pry away... I just do the boiling because it's more convenient for me because it allows me to multitask a lot better. When i'm home this weekend and have to remove the JDM high beam lense I will prolly use a heat gun just to be a bit safer QUOTE(mneal2_92788 @ Mar 27, 2007 - 8:44 AM) [snapback]540229[/snapback] i havta do that soon too, but next week is spring break so ill prolly do it then. I'll be home this weekend if you wanna meet up -------------------- ![]() |
