Need help wit lights
I'm thinkin about clearin out tha sides of my lights.
If anyone is willing to help, (since this is my first time doing it), i'd greatly appriciate if someone could tell me in a detailed manner, how to do it.
i'm just really curious to see how it looks and wanting to get my hands a lil dirty with it.
i understand its a easy process, but i'd just like to know i'm doing it right since there's no other places nearby that have parts for aleros.
i'm wanting to do it tommorrow, so tha more info i have now tha better.
thank you!

oven on low for about 8minutes. WATCH THEM so they dont burn. then.. take them apart take out the orange reflector.. have some silicone ready and put them back together (or you can paint the bezels) after putting them together cover each of them with like two towels and put the couch on top of them for the night to keep them nice and tight and let the silicone dry.

As soon as I got my headlamps back on I notied that my driver side bulb was out, sounds to me like tha same problem. Unfortunatly after I replaced the bulbs I noticed all the other bulbs that were out as well, like the corner tail lampd bulb, license plate bulbs are out, its a never ending battle with them,

I think that since they're behind reflectors, they're ignored and go unnoticed anyway. My car was at 75K or so when I got it, I swear those bulbs had never been changed. |

actually im sure if you searched for cleared corners EVERY SINGLE post on the forum would show up, everyone always says clear your corners in 97.6% of all posts so not much help there, unless that is stickied
