- In today's episode I will show you results after installing 'Messy Garages' clear lens for the Lexus SC400, SC300, and Toyota Soarer.
With some time and a few tools you can achieve a crystal clear and clean look with oem headlights.
Things you will nees:
1. The clear lenses
messy-garages-...
2. Self-confidence
The first step into completing this is having enough confidence to tackle the project. If you are nervous, low self esteem, or don't know how to even remove your headlight with Google as a source. Quit before you break something.
3. A putty knife
The thinner the better
4. An oven, heat gun, and cardboard box.
These are the three meothds of heating up old headlight glue from factory. The older your headlights the more heat you'll need.
5. Buytl tape
This is a gummy like adhesive to put everything back together. You could re-use your old tape. However I recommend a fresh lining for best results.
6. Clamps or zip ties
Clapms or zip ties will help you have a tight and secure assembly. Slowly add more pressure and heat to socket back together like OEM.
Brings back memories when I installed my Supermade clear lenses. Clear lenses make a HUGE difference. They look great on your car!
Bro, suprmades go waaaay back.
This is the most original front end in the sickest I have seen on an SC
Frrr
Thank you for making this video, I’ll be ordering a set soon now that I know what clear lens look like 😂😂😂.
Hahah anytime Bro!
wow the difference with clear vs oem . awesome video brotha ! personally i love the look of the clear lens. thanks for the tips with this though , i've been wanting to do my tail lights for a while just scared of the glue process lol
Yeah, it's a great look that updates the look to more modern. I really need to find my ppf. Who knows how long the cloudless central valley sun will toast them up. Don't be afraid of the glue process, it's just messy and has to be at the right temperature.
4:59 i think the cardboard box method is for the shops haha. I dont think ovens are common at shops so you gotta make an easy bake
"you can borrow your neighbors kid if you dont have one just make sure you give them snacks" LMAOOOO
Hahahah ah
Damn, the wire wheel to clean out the channel was a good idea, i ended up using a hair dryer to heat up the channel. Clamps are also a great idea. Wish i would of thought of that 😭. Great work & breakdown as always!
It ain't much, but it's honest work.
damn, looks great all clear, too bad i'm doing weird cyberpunk shit to mine lol. black housing looks sick on these cars as well, i did that to my last old man tan one.
Hahah whatever you do will be great Bro! Honestly you should paint flying. Nimbus gold. You'd be the only modified + all gold SC in the USA. Rofl
@@Mikkelism well the plan is carbon kevlar body so paint is out of the question lol. i want that raw carbon kevlar dark yellow look.
Love your videos. You always hit all the details man
My bad I haven't replied to this yet. Thank you!
I think 2021+ Lexus is350 style headlights would nice on the our sc300s, they're some what about the same size and shape. Especially on your body kit
I'm good on those, (again) I've a set of triple beams in the makes.
That TRD grill is sicj
Good vid! Well put together with good info!
Thanks Bro! It seems like this video was just enough information without overloading.
@@Mikkelism yeah good stuff, un like some ding dongs 👀😤
I think you can still order the upper headlight seal from Lexus, I know you were able to a few years ago
They probsboy have some left. I doubt it's a highly sought after item that people actually purchase from dealer.
I need those clear lenses.
This video is awesome!
Hello i have a question. I have a 1992 lexus sc 300 and the tailights have water inside. I have to change the rubbers seals( they are available to sell?) Or i use silicone? Plz help
Yes, you answered your own question. If it's not leaking from the rubber, take it apart and reseal it.
Beautiful baby girl....the car looks ok too lol
Thank you.
love your body kit front bumper where and how did you buy that
Ur wasn't bought I made it and a whole video regarding that. Feel free to check it out.
Curious what bumper you have on, what’s the name of it, I see TRO but I googled it and found nothing

Thank you for viewing commenting!
How are the clear lens holding up?
They are holding up good. However I have a 1 off case. Summer of 2023 had 110°+ days for like a week straight. The clear started to flake off. But do remember, this is extreme cases.
Hey how was your former on the body lkit ?
@@Seven8the0 It was great, thank you for asking.
@@Mikkelismfitment was good ? Looks sick
@@Seven8the0 Seeing as I made it for the car... Yes.
@@Seven8the0 Also, if you're looking for a better response, can you please try harder at forming fuller and better sentences? It would be appreciated. I just now see you mean fitment instead of former. Your comments are wildly off the video subject...
Where do we get the clear lenses now ?
One company is finishing their final run with clear lenses. I think messy garage is making another batch soon.
fireeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Thank you An!
Where can I find the lenses the link don’t work anymore if anyone could help that would be great
He sold out. I don't think he went through with the next batch.
Can we find the guy and force him to make another batch ? lol@@Mikkelism
@@pepsmarc4120 I just spoke with him a few days ago. It's not his fault, You've gotta go higher in the supply chain.
@@MikkelismSorry, higher?
@hehoohooington510 yes, someone higher up in the chain of command / supply
