Today in the Iron JV Kitchen Stadium we have a battle of epic proportions.....X5world members vs. BMW X5 and today's secret ingredient.............
Angel Eyes!
The X5world members have 1 day to bake, unseal, install AE's, re-bake, reseal and install the AE's; all WITHOUT INSTRUCTIONS!
Can it be done?!
I'm glad I was able to assist, actually, wish I was there.
Just a side note after seeing the pics......you could've used some blue painters tape to hold the rings while the silicone dried.
If someone is willing to donate a light and a set of AE's, I'd be willing to get a set of instructions and maybe a video together of installing the AE's.
The basic instuctions would go something like:
TEST RINGS BEFORE PROCEEDING! (wouldn't it suck to do all this and then have them not work?) If you hear the infamous "bink" while installing rings, it probably broke, so re-test to verify.
