Pissing rain in Shanghai, windy, cold, Non stop. and now this Hervé.... wtf.

That oven's thermostat is nasty offset for sure (???). Even at 300+ degree C for 10min... it might possibly chg shape a tad but would never burn. Unless it is one of those mini oven then that might explain what happened.

Good news is there are a few of those headlights available here and there - affordable. I'd also post in the WTB section of the forum... sure a fella member here will give you a break on cost
In retrospect, I'd rather be in my seat than your buddy's... Hope he'll recover nicely.

They were not burnt but they caved in and looked milky.
I'll start looking for a new set, see if maybe charles can handle the conversion for me.

Laugh as much as you want but my oven: a carton box insulated externally with foam and powered with a 2500w heat gun. $5 thermostat with a timer. That easy mate...

It was ^ that, or a divorce loll

Mate will be fine, I think loll Insured and all. Plastic broken deep inside his lower back... needs minor surgery. We waited about 7 hrs however... that 'wait' wasn't pleasant apparently. 26million population city... what else can you expect here. Missing those 'quick' and free Canadian hospitals man

Luck with the headlight find :/ arggg what a day
