The "gluey" sealant that's used to prevent leaks like water from getting in. I didn't reseal mine to the housing.. bad move. )=

Mister.E · 08-04-2010, 02:20 PM

mad-ass · 08-04-2010, 02:27 PM

s14fbs · 08-04-2010, 03:15 PM

window weld is the shit

95KA-Turbo · 08-04-2010, 04:11 PM

How hard is it to remove the stock lenses on tail lights without breaking them to pieces?

same as the headlights just heat them up in the over and slowly separate them while there warm

i just took my spare zenki lights and looked

yellowxhoodie · 08-04-2010, 05:11 PM

im pretty sure you cant bake tail lights like you can headlights, they still wont separate and youll just end up melting them.

ive done tail lights before on other cars and had to cut them open with a dremel then re-seal them when i was finished.

well my zenki tails have like little push tabs like the are sealed on and have tabs to hold

yellowxhoodie · 08-04-2010, 05:59 PM

yea, i dont know about zenki tails, i was just saying that most tails arent able to be baked open.

would be awesome if it was just tabs, itd make everything a hell of a lot easier and cleaner

Mister.E · 08-04-2010, 08:10 PM

Vegas doesn't get much rain at all, so eff it.

ka-titties · 08-04-2010, 09:04 PM

its the humidity that'll do it. i've never been to vegas before but from what i hear the climate is very dry in which case youre good anyways.

yingiang · 08-04-2010, 09:06 PM

i dont like how the kouki tails look with zenki front. doesnt flow

Mister.E · 08-04-2010, 09:43 PM

You're right, there is pretty much no humidty here.

ka-titties · 08-04-2010, 10:18 PM

i wish florida was like that

mad-ass · 08-04-2010, 10:37 PM

I'm slowly changing my mind back around to keeping the Zenki lights....

anyhoo, check this car out!

s13pignose · 08-04-2010, 10:37 PM

Anyone manage to get bugs in there center garnish of their koukis? I've had it happen once in a set of kouki led's, and just notice one the other day in my reverse reflectlor on the oem koukis I know have. I think they get in through the openings on the back of the reverse bulb housings. I got the one out my oem koukis with a simple shake. Went through hell and back with the led ones, and eneded up ruining the garnish in the process. Tempted to put some electrical tape over the covers, but figured the holes are there to let heat out?

Also about the led tails leaking, I had it happen on my 2nd set of led's that were purchased because of what happen to first set. Seems I'm catching a hard time every time I try a kouki style light lol.
