Is it possible that you can post a picture of the back side of the finished product??
I'm starting my project soon, and just wondering what it looks like on the back when it's all done.

Yeah. Remind me again tomorrow. Sorry was working all afternoon and then worked on my brothers house. I'll be sure to grab some pics.

If you are using the standard lights that came on some of the trucks and not the HID ones, you can also use the 4" cap that TRS sells. That's what I used and they are a perfect fit....snug over the hole and yet you don't have to jam them on. I also used the black silicone to adhere them over the opening but that is just precautionary. I cut a little hole in the back of the cap for the circular black grommet on the bulbs and wired everything through there. I don't have any issues with moisture that I'm aware of but I also stuffed 3 or 4 silica packs in each headlight. Be careful with that cuz the packs may move around and you may be able to see a little white on the bottom of the lens where the pack is sitting inside the headlight. Ask me how I know....hahaha.

That defiantly would have come in handy had I known about it. I noticed you had something there but couldn't figure out exactly how you did it. I originally thought you kinda unraveled the seal already on the back of the light somehow. I'll have to use that next set if I find someone who wants these. Oh well
