hey guys, well i got tired of the ebay ones they dont fit trying to hybrid them with the stock housing. SO iam DELINING the entire light lens. well I am leaving a little trim design.. I amgoing to post pictures of progres.. I am also going to sell delined sets when I am done for all you DIY guys building lights....
THIS PROCESS is a PAIN!!!!!!!!! but hopefully will look and fit better than the ebay did....
here are first shots of the delined process.. 6 hours alone.



still have a ways to go , but the delining is done.. and I am leaving a border just cause i like it..

 

Looks great. Cant wait to see the outcome.I wish they made those delined lenses in glass

 

yeah I know I am looking for a guy who I know does great glass blowing to make a set prototype

 

wow you actually delined the whole thing...that's pretty hardcore man

 

Very hardcore indeed, but the ebay lenses only require a 1/4" of trimming and a little heat persuasion and they are on, what sort of trouble did you have, they fit like OEM after.

 

if you are interested in selling those ebay ones shot me a pm. this might be the only reason for me to open mines again this soon.

 

I tried but mine did not line up correct and they don't look as good to me cause they bulb out some but maybe I did something wrong but factory always fits best LOL maybe u can post pictures here of where you trimmed

 

Here is the finished product on my build:




They sit just as flush as OEM, the only thing that sticks out a bit is the thicker seal i used to protect the ballasts from moisture.

Goodluck with the full deline, you have HOURS and HOURS of labor left to go, just pm me if you need help.

 

Ok thanks and nice job. What rubber seal is that? What did you trim ?

 

That rubber seal is for automotive usage, if you read through my DIY thread you will see a picture of it, i got it from lowes.


I had to trim 1/4" of plastic from most of the outside corner area ( side facing wheels ) for it to sit low enough, then i heated the plastic and dry fit the lense to make it seat properly into the OEM housing, sorry i dont have pics.

 

thanks man the thread helps .

 

No problem bro, OLT has his thread floating around here as well, you should check it out too.
