OK so I got my AAC LED halos today and as soon as I got home from work it was time to install!! AAC already has good walkthroughs on how to open the headlights but I found a way that worked better for me on re sealing them!!!

Step 1:

Go to your local auto parts store and get some of this make sure it has that white nozzel it helps a bunch. And get at least 2 tubes one for each light.

Step 2:
After installing you halos you are ready to re seal the lights!!! You will need some painters tape or electrical tape and the sealant open the sealant and cut off the tip of the white nozzel to the desired size... run a good bead all the way around the ridge of the backing WITH the bezel in place it has tabs that rest in the backing

Step 3:
After running the bead of sealant all the way around it's time to put the lens on... Line it up and press it on... take the tape and attach it to hold the lens in place
Image


Step 4:
take the tube of sealant again and run it around the edge to make sure you don't have any holes!!!

and then you wait... You can use your fingers to smooth out the sealant but forwarning it will stain your fingers... so wear some latex gloves.

the sealant says 1 hour to firm but 24 to full cure and max strength!!!


GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!

Looks good.

So, it's been 20 minutes. I know you have tried them out. How do you think they look?

Sadly no I have work at 7AM and a retarted motion sensor light on the side of the house by the driveway... and nothing in the house to give me a good test voltage unless someone knows of something almost everyone has to try...

The Fogs are different because I think you have to cut them open... some one correct me if I'm wrong!!!

But I had the CCFL 10000K halos on my chrome bezels before I got the LEDS and some black bezels!! Here are pics!!

They are alot brighter than this Floyd lowered the exposure on his camera so the halos would stand out... if you wait a bit then Hemi Wagon will have the LEDs installed on Chrome so you can see!!!
