thanks 2kSC
the install is not that bad, if u have data dot recall done it gets a little more invlolved since u have to remove the brackets holding the light in. and if you want to clear out your turning signal add another 1/2 hour , 45 minutes. u can see in the first pic i replaced it with a clear lens.
baking the lights is fun, especially if other members of teh family start scratching their heads and asking you question as what in the hell you are doing ..lol

looks good. I agree about the second pic, the water on it makes it look really good for some reason.

I'm assuming the clear lens you used is the Home Depot lens that gets dremeled out?

You do DDE installs for money, food, the goodness of your heart, only for friends? I may be interested in an install for next summer if you offer it for everybody.

yes i used the home depot sealed light and dremel out the circle. i didnt even do the lens for myself...hehe but did it for him.

i just did them. the kid was cool, he was just scared doin it himself and i didnt mind doing them. plus he offered to detail my car so i figured even trade .. .

so i can pretty much can do them for anyone, not nesseserally for money

took the pics right after i put the light back in .. just needed to readjust the screws for proper fitment. and the anti theft bracket wasnt screwed back on yet at that time.
overall i did a better job on his DDE's then i did on mine. experience i guess. plus i might open my lights back up to put the clear turning signal lens in. i like how it looks with it much better.

What's the difference? They're in Staten, you're in NYC... are there any areas that are safer than others up there?

actually mine (black max) is on long island. Yea i did have my lights jacked once on campus, but now i'm a bit wiser, and i won't leave the car in a campus lot at night time (i live off campus).

I have the datadots recall, and i won't live worried, what happens happens.
If i have the opportunity to see someone touching my car outside (i park right next to the window which my bed is next too, i'll be outside rather quickly.

Yeah I did that too I rewired my fogs also. DDE's with just the fogs on look awesome. So u wired the DDE's on ure car with a switch?? I was going to do that but wasnt sure how difficult it woulda been so I just hooked them up to my clearance lights.
