Tom Suggested to Drill a hole in the back and slide the wire through it secure the wires and than plug the back of the cap with silicone. Can i leave it like this or defiantly do what he advised? |
Definitely do what was advised.
Your headlights would be screwed in a very short time if you left it open. |
Yea i am gonna get a drill tomarrow, should be good since humidity is low during winter so i can get away with that right? lol well i gotta get this done, but i got a new thing, how do i level the headlights?
|
Tom is no motha truckin fool. He is the best at electronics. See you in June tom
|
It's not just the humidity, dust, grime and water will make it's way inside. You don't want a dusty lense, do you? Can you even break open the headlamp of an '04+ to clean the inside of the lense?
|
i like my lenses to be dust,grime, and water free! lol i am gonna work on that cap tomarrow ASAP!
|
I used a 1" paddle bit for the installation of my HID foglights in my X, and both the lowbeam and foglights in my 7. Search for my HID install post.
|
o0o0o nice! i saw your post on your FOGS and i am thinking of doing that next, and the 1inch paddle sounds good, i was about to ask how big should the hole be but you beat me to it! lol btw i wana level my headlamp where is the nut to do that?
|
Not to sound like a noob or anything, but that looks like a facelifted E53 which I always thought came stock with HID's
Did you install auto levels as well or did you originally have halogens? |
Looks good, but don't leave it open and allow condensation. It might mess up the bulbs.
