Got my SE heads! Well, they are used and came with a few minor issues that I did not see in pics. So the story is that my son went and picked them up for me. Paid the guy $100. When he delivered them to me, the passenger side was hazy on the inside, the driver side had a small streak in the low beam lens. So I did a little research on how to clean the lens. I wish I had done a before and after. They are both now 95% perfect. I followed the video below. But I had to make my own cleaning cloths with a magnet inside them (thankfully I know how to sew, my mom taught me well). First I used Invisible glass, then ran a blow dryer in each. Followed that by rinsing my cleaning magnets in water ( cut-up microfiber cloth sewed into a rectangle with a small earth magnet in it) then doused with 91% alcohol and wrung out, repeat twice. The outcome is stellar and they look new. What a excellent $100 investment. OEM SE halogens on the
cheap.

Good deal! Never would have thought to clean them like that. Sure beats baking them apart and doing it that way.
It'll surprise me if it waits until spring.

Mines sitting in the barn with the interior door panels off, and doors wide open. With you on the weather, just haven't worked up the ambition to get out there and finish it up. "Maybe", by Saturday.
