| yup I told you about it. Pretty easy, I wish i got a different colored adhesive though. I got a red colored one because it was the only high temp one Larry's had. | |

| well if its just moisture, just baking it will get rid of it. If its actually dirty, you could take a clean lint free towel and wipe it down. You just want to make sure that you won't leave residue or any marking because then you'd have to rebake it. For the sealant you need high temp silicone. You can get those at any autoparts stores I believe. http://www.ricks2k.com/info/instructions/diffuser.pdfThis had the basic steps on baking the headlight halfway down. You could reference that when you want to try to do it. | |
