Have a set of lexus lens that swap in place of our stock clear lens. I'm not going to use them, so hopefully one of you can:
from Curtis:
Quoting curtis:
Take all the junk off the factory fog, preheat oven to 175
Bake at 185 for 20 minutes then up again to 195 to 210 for 10 minutes. Repeat if necessary
Then after the bake take a wide flat tip or a wide plastic scrapper. I use part of an old beech baron windscreen thats been sharpened.
Then pry up on a corner. If it takes alot of effort go back to baking again but not super hot 230 max. ABS plastic starts to melt at below that. Then after its apart and grey goo is still hot start scrapping and cutting it out. No solvents I've found effect the stuff.
Then set aside and go bake the next one. Your not fast enough to bake both and separate both.
Now remove the metal shield and wire brush the corrosion and then repaint. After cured install everything back in the same way it comes out and seal with grey RTV. now I noticed these have the plastic adjuster pieces missing. When you go to take them out they usually break into two pieces because there brittle from the heat. No big deal after there back in the square hole and you thread the height adjustment back in they want fall out. Just make sure you put the new lexus projectors back in with the top on top or the cut off line etc will be upside down.
If buyer or seller have any questions yell. I've done a bunch of these over the years for people on here.
same as these, but this isnt a picture of them.
