Welcome to Troll's Bakery (Headlight Clearing Party- Sunday 2/12 at TROLL's place)




hey, this turned into a thread about setting up a headlight baking party...

its gonna be at my (TROLL's) house in langhorne / newtown area on sunday feb 12th... time to be determined.

I'll help you bake your lights, but expect to do a good amount of the work on your own lights yourself, especially if we get more than a few people doing this. I've done 3 sets now, both bugeye and lameeye ;) so we'll get yours done safe and sound.

Bring:
a tube of clear or black silicone sealant
new blinker bulbs if you want (see posts below discussing that)

Official Signup sheet:
TROLL - (just helping)
TehWagon - bugeye WRX
WKDerf - boringeye WRX
sisforsurfing - bugeye WRX (4-5pm)
R33P3R007 - Cobalt SS
HuffRex - boringeye WRX
busyb2100 - boringeye WRX

I don't know. Troll was craving headlamps, so he decided to bake some.

Troll cooked these things to remove the lens and then remove the internal amber lens. After that they were resealed and reassembled to be installed tomorrow.

Baking the headlights will allow you to remove the lens that covers the lamp assembly much easier.

It has to be done right, or you will destroy the headlights.

It will allow you to make your lights completely clear by giving you access to the inside of the assembly and fiddle with it from there.

feb 12th works for me!!! i can't host unfortunately...
paint could be tricky, wouldn't want to leave them apart for too long and not be able to reseal... or do you stick them back in the oven to get them gooey to reseal them anyway?

yeah there's no time limit on how long you have them apart, i put fresh silicone on them anyways to make sure they reseal well. i'm actually a fan of resealing 2x so you can be sure you wont have problems down the road.
