Opening the Headlights

[StangNZ]

Hey everyone,

I know there has been a lot of posts on installing DRL's/Switchbacks in the headlights.

I have read posts on cutting open the rear of the headlight casing to access where the LED boards will be placed & also others on baking in the oven.

As far as I know we don't yet have anyone offering the service of retrofitting the DRL/switchback boards here in NZ, so we are still trying to sort this issue out at home.

I just wanted to get some quick advice from those that have actually opened their headlights or known someone who has done so:

1. What is the easiest and best method to open these things & steps required?

2. Is cutting the rear of the casing open & then resealing a safer option?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Nate

Can't find it right now, but [MENTION=25769]CasperGT[/MENTION] did a big write-up on two different methods for opening the lights. So far, [MENTION=25769]CasperGT[/MENTION] has the most knowledge I've seen.

This is CasperGT's very helpful instruction manual:

EDIT: The link doesn't seem to be working for some reason, but all the info I've seen on this part of the site is in this thread:
