Alright. Clearing the corners.

[BEELER]

I know, I should abuse the search button. I've read about it, blah blah. I know what to do, it's just doing it is the problem. I'm a completely ignorant person when it comes to cars, etc.

I don't even know how to take the light socket thing out of the vehicle to disassemble it. Haha, Should I even attempt it? If so, what's the way to do this?

[AGT]

I don't know if you should attempt to clear corners if you can't remove the socket from the back of the headlight assembly.

There's two sliding things that hold it in place that you lift up. Then you twist the two outer bulbs out of the assembly and disconnect the connection that powers the two inner ones.

[AGT]

Then you have to remove the front clear plastic from the assmebly with a combination of heat, knife/screwdriver and patience. Then the little piece pops of the turn signal area.

Ok. Do I need to get orange tinted bulbs? Or are the bulbs already that color... I always thought thats what the orange thing did, was make it tinted.

[jayson_waltz]

you need the orange 194NA bulbs to be legal.

you'll need to get orange bulbs, the stock corner bulbs are clear

[Cliff8928]

Actually, they can be white on the corners, as long as your signals are amber.

I use Pilot Amber Chromes. Look chrome when off, light up amber.

Techncally it's illegal to clear your corners anywhere since it's required you have a side reflector in the headlight. It's whether they'll actually enforce it, which 99% of the time they probably won't. Mine has passed state inspection a couple times without the corner reflector.

[whiterider00]

mine, they wouldnt even take into the garage. she said if they did then they wud fauil it and i wouldnt be able to drive it home since it wasnt legal. so as of now, im about a month past due on inspection. they didnt even get to hear my exhaust...lol.

[natedawg9640]

Just take some reflectors off a bicycle and stick them on your car when inspection time comes around :p

[Nate's Alero]

Im in MA and i was thinkin bout clearing mine. is it just when you go for an inspection they give you a hard time or do cops make a big deal about it too? If its just at inspection im not worried about it. but if cops are gunna be stopping me for it im not sure i wanna do it.

[Spilner521]

I highly doubt you'll have any problems with a cop noticing and pulling you over. It's only when they're actually looking for it during inspection.

[AtomicX]

Inspection places are all different. The last one I went to was a joke. They spent 5 minutes on it.

[Justin081]

ya the one i go to im not worried about because i know the guy so he will just ignore all that stuff.

[NickAlero2000]

yea...i like having hookups in the automotive world
lol

[leoalero]

just put it in the oven for 10 minutes then its enough liquid to get the clear plastic off the assembly pop the orange corner out and reuse the same glue by putting it in the oven an other 2-3 min at like 125 deg.,stick it togheter and your good to go,just use patience!!

I need to clear my corners as well. I took a quick look at the assembly last night and notice there is just some black rubbery substance holding the clear cover to the assembly. I'm assuming this black stuff is just glue? So once I remove it, am I going to need buy that type of glue to put it back together?

[meadus101]

that's the silicone, that's what mostpeople use a Hair dryer to get off. Let it turn goopy, then you can get it apart.

Once it solidifies again, Go with an Exacto knife, screwdriver, and whatever you can use to help you, and scrape it off, then run a new bead.
