Look what i did last night!!!!!!
How does it look?
Im sorry i didnt do a write up. It was kind of hard at first but then i figured out how to do it. I have to go to work in a little bit but i will be back tonight to entertain all questions.
Hello all. I shoulda been more specific, last night i took apart my headlights and cleared out the orange. You cant tell that i took something out of the lense, its very clean. I'll take a close up shot soon. so how did i do this??
First i went to take the headlamps off the car, while doing this i found out that the I's have a security screw that you need to unscrew but in order to get to it you need to move the bumper. I got the screw out and the headlamp off the car and took it inside. I used a hairdryer to heat the glue/seal so i can split up the lense and housing. after getting an opening big enough i was able to just simply pull the orange reflector out. The orange piece is conected to the lamp in three places and is easily detatchble. after i got it out i pushed it back together and reheated with the hair dryer to make sure its sealed. and then put it back onto the car.
I hope that gives some kind of idea.

I hope my method made sence. When i typed all that last night i was sick and wasnt thinking clearly. I'll take some close up pictures today so you can see how clean the removal was.

I am guessing you cleared the the orange out of the headlights? I am sure the 2nd gen I30/35 owners will know right away.
But I'm from Canada eh so what do I know (it's law here).
