Love that you mentioned not to mess with the ridge on the lens when you remove it. I saw a guy pick at it and when he resealed it, he didn’t have a a nice perimeter line. It was all choppy with black spots
Hey guys, I didn't mention this at the time of upload but depending on the LED rings you purchase you may have issues seeing the brakes or turn signals in the day time or direct sunlight, which is a safety issue. To remedy this, I recommend either purchasing higher quality LED's than I did (Diode Dynamics and Profile by Morimoto both make LED's that are visible in sunlight) OR leaving the turn signal and OEM brake light LED's intact when performing this mod.
@@sapboi104 Hey there much appreciated! I just saw your comment, if you're serious about getting your tail lights done you can message me over on insta, @fcasn_hutto. Thanks!
13:48 I went with Rustoleum engine enamel. It left a really glossy finish, looking back I would have went with something a bit more satin. Really any paint should work fine, I would avoid cheaper stuff as it might chip later down the line
I used white but I highly recommend using Diode Dynamics red halos in 90mm and 110mm. You can use an 85mm as well for the smaller circle, I've found 90mm fits tight and requires some force to get into place.

Can't you use the oven method for the tail lights as you do on the headlights??
No they are plastic welded so you have to use a dremel to cut the housings
Wish you made more videos
I will try this, thanks brother
You made this look super easy, ever done anyone else’s taillights? And how much would you charge?
Hello mate, just read your message -
I do offer this as a service, prices start at 275 for send in tail lights and 600 for a brand new set with halos.
@@calynhutto6424 how do i contact you about this?
@@hudcu I no longer offer this service. My apologies.
What hot knife is that
Great vid.What size was the halos?
90mm on the small, 110mm on the large. I would do 85mm on the small if you can find it.

Calyn Hutto did you get red or white halos ?
@@matthewsanmiguel8599 I used white halos, however I recommend getting the red ones. They will be brighter in the tail light housing.
Either way great video,you was very precise,I would love to have you do mine
And I'll pay you

Молодец, хорошоя работа 👍
How close to the lense did you get? Some parts of the housing have thinner areas than others. Thanks
So what if I don't paint it in black? And leave chrome?
Quick question but what kinda of paint did you use to paint the bezel ?

Thanks bro and what’s your @ bro
@@vq_suaaa4378 @fcasn_hutto
U think I can do this to a g37
More than likely, I've never tried though. I think it's a similar method, probably just different size rings
Where can I get the aperture
If you are referring to the halo rings, I purchased the ones on video from Amazon however I now use Diode Dynamics halos for all of my installations
@@calynhutto6424 halo sizes from diode dynamics?
@@carlossaravia9201 110mm for the large circle, 85mm or 90mm for the small circle. 90mm provides a very tight fit.
@@calynhutto6424 thank you
