    If anybody is about to tackle this project, I can't stress enough how important step @7:35 is. I fought the bracket for over an hour and ended up putting the nut back on and cutting as much as possible off from the stud, then taking nut off and re-installing the bracket. Theres just enough thread and it makes the job night and day easier.

    It's helpful to leave the film on the new lights until they're installed... it protects them from scratches when you're working.

    You mentioned the burned up headlight bowls at the beginning, how do you repair those to get the light output back? I have 140k miles on my LCI and the headlight output is quite bad so I assume I have burned bowls. Awesome video man! I'll be referencing it soon when I dive into mine to replace my projector lenses and toss my DEF tank in the dumpster.

    • @bradtourt
      @bradtourt  2 місяці тому

      That's a lot more work to do that, then you have to deal with the washer fluid tank and also align the fenders when you put it back together. But you do you, whatever works.
