Problems

My first attempt at clearing my corners went rather crappy. I got the two main halves of the headlight assembly apart, but the chrome plastic piece is giving me some serious problems. It's not held in with silicone like the rest of the unit, it seems almost like super-glue or something is holding the piece in. I was using a heat gun to warm up the silicone, which worked quite nicely, but it didn't do any good for the chrome insert. Any ideas?

the ones in the corner piece are clear bulbs, you need to get some "amber chrome 194" bulbs that look chrome then light up amber

LED's

I just went to AutoZone and bought a set of LED lights, they are clear, but light up orange. I can't wait to get the corners cleared so I can get some pics up. Only cost me about $10

for both headlight, there are 2 3157 amber bulbs that you can see for turn signals and 2 194 clears in the markers that should be changed to 194 ambers.
