Im redoing my bulbs tomorrow- I have two that keep going in and out... its the contacts that touch on the side. At least on mine it is. Ill wrap the ends with some other wire and then cram it in. :p

i took the thing completely apart the face too and used goo gone to get the sticky crap off, then used a knife to scrape the blue off,
its a bit of a pita but worth it.

So you had to take the needles off?? How hard was it to do that?

jawa 07-17-2010 12:23 PM

it wasnt hard at all they pop right off but mark where they are then you pull them off
i did but the gf decided to put them where ever and i had to take em off and redo them
