Looks great! How long did it take you? Post some pics when they are back on the car with new bulbs.

Are those holes in the plastic from heat?

Very cool.

I don't like amber headlights or tail lights but I do really like that little bit of amber inside of the headlights. It gives it a cool look IMO.

Yesterday I finished my amberectomy. Took me two years to find all the parts at a price I could afford. But, it's done!!!

I think what you were referring to are the opennings for the headlight washer nozzles.

I will be doing an amberectomy this weekend since my chrome/amber bulbs just showed up so I was reviewing a few posts to refresh my memory on how to do it. I had shortcuts for this post and a few others and I saw the name xenonmods as a source for bulbs. I had read a few posts saying people had bought from them without issues, but I should have searched further.

XENONMODS ripped me off!!

Please learn from my mistake. I ordered a few pairs of bulbs from them and after 12 days and the only email I ever received was from PayPal confiming that they had my money. Now it has been almost 3 weeks and not a word from them.
Their website says you will get an email with a tracking number within 24 hours and that you will be contacted immediately if there are any problems with your order,,, they did not follow through on any of those promises and they have not responded to any of my emails.
I am working to get a refund through PayPal and my credit card. Has anyone else that has been scammed by xenonmods ever got their money back?
