amberectomy rehersal

[Tieniber]

I'm a bit confused by your question - there should be an amber lens in both litronics and non-litronic headlights, assuming they are "clear" headlights from the later years. Are you trying to practice on one of the older, amber, non-litronics? I don't think those have a lens that you can use to practice.

I was a little scared when I did the amberectomy, but I didn't have too much trouble. I just sliced up the lens with my soldering iron and pull out pieces with a pair of needle nose pliers. Just take your time!

Yes I have a non litronic pair with amber on the outside. I got them as scrap.

The unit has the same config but the lense inside, just inside the hole is clear......just wondering if the all the right pieces are there for practice....it's hard to see as they are not amber

Yes this is just t practice the real thing and yeah I am hesitant to start melting a 1k headlight unit!

Any detailed process pictures would be helpful. I have some but I still can see how one wouldl be able to get the edges out???
