Fog Light housing, taking off the lense...

Baking them @ 230 Degrees for 5 mins should do the trick right? I want to take off the lense to "retro" fit the Lexus Yellow Capsules...



These fog lights were a bitch to take off, they are only held on by two bolts tho...one of them is a 8mm but u need a long 8mm socket for this, and the other is i think a 6mm or 7mm, i used my robogrip for that one tho.

i found water in one of mine this summer... I think whoever had the car before me cracked them open. Make sure you seal them like crazy or they will get water in them and look like crap...
