Any one know the "oven method" for the heads, tails, and fogs.

Im think about doing my fogs

I will post pics of he process if anyone has the "method"

 

sorry to sound dumb...but what is the oven method exactly and what does it do?

 

baking your headlights or other objects to loosen silicone.. then you disassemble everything... paint.. then re-assemble

 

this could help

I have found that it works well on some lights and its a real beotch on others....good luck. I did it to my old car and it worked great, tried it on my ranger headlights and couldn't get the housing to even budge...

 

thanks guys.

Now I have a question for ya tho..

I have heard that by painting my fog lights eve with a automotive high gloss paint it wont reflect the light and my fog lights will be pretty much useless.

Any feedback??

 

well ya, if u paint the reflective part of the light it will kind of defeat the whole purpose of the light...the bulb is only a small fraction of the amount of light that comes out of the housing,u need the reflection..thats why u can have the HD headlights and still have pretty much the same light output as stock because the inside is black but the parts that reflect the light are left "chrome" see my avatar for example

 

thats what i am affraid of. i think I will pas on the painting of the fog lights. Maybe just tent the lenses instead

 

I cant wait for tomorrow i am going to do the oven method on my truck! Wish me luck, I will take pics so I can finally have some an my profile

 

I am curious to see how it comes out.
