Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

the clamps only stayed on so well for me so I put more zipties on and my rtv tube assploded all over the place on me. talk about a huge gooey mess
 
Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

Oh I see them on the last page, I used 2 of them like that but smaller. Are you leaving the reflector out of the side marker? I tinted mine, just spray the back side of it lightly with black paint.
 
Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

Lol ok. I thought it looked a bit goofy with the hole there for the little bulb, that's why I tinted them, so they would blend better with the housing. Still a little orange-ish.
 


Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

well I bought two corners from jeremy so i might do those like that

They look sweet, good job. Lemme know if that sealant stuff worked after a week or so. I'm getting some condensation in mine. It might be from that perforated wire coating from the hi beam solenoids though cuz I didn't take that off. Idk if my bulbs are in the tightest either. It's there some days and some it isn't.
 
Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

Nice, why don't you tuck that wire going to the driver headlight under the plastic? Also if you need a place to mount the relay box, the bolt holding the washer tank works. I can text a pic.

Use RTV to seal up the hole for the wires from the solenoid.
 
Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

I didn't take the wire loom off the solenoid wires, just made sure there was a lot of rtv there.

for some reason that one pokes out a little past the fender im gonna zip tie it back some how. And it doesnt look as bad in person i think its more so the one chunk of old adhesive i couldnt get out
 
Re: Palm tree retros making me angry

There's 2 bolt holes for the corner to mount to the metal bracket, try using the bolt hole closer to the engine if you aren't already. May have to push the corner light with a little force.
