DIY Question: Bake time and temp and an FXR template
I have seen all kinds of bake times and temps. What is the generally agree combination?
Also, I searched for a couple of hours and saw references to, but could not find a picture of a cutout template for the reflector bucket for seating in FXR projectors.
Finally, Any idea where I can get Ford matching paint cheaper than getting it from the dealer??
Thanks!

Here is the first half:
Splitting the headlights from this older thread by The Machine:
https://www.f150forum.com/f38/f150-h...-4-min-240983/
Couple of key notes:
1.Make sure all bulbs, grommets are removed
2.Clean the lens before baking
3.Remove two screws shown in the beginning of the video
4.Bake in oven at 250 degrees for 30 min for easiest separation
Now to find a template for the FX-R and the best place for OEM paint....

The following is a site that can match factory paint:
http://www.expresspaint.com
Your paint code is on the drivers side door jamb sticker (white one) and is a 2 digit code.

Not quite. It would be great to have cut out templates for the various projectors posted, too.
Meh. If it helps 1 other person, great!
