I enjoy your videos! I'm a mechanic and body guy by trade. Bc of your videos I tackled my first projector retrofit and sequential turn signal for my navigator headlights since the aftermarket suck for those suv's. I appreciate all the great tips!
Greetings to everyone! I would like to see a video on how to clean the inside of the headlight lens! I love the content of your channel, I've been a mechanic in the military and civilian sector! I am learning a lot by the professional way you present and explain your trade! Have a wonderfully blessed day!
Amazing video! Always extremely informative, helpful, and builds our confidence to DIY. I spoke to the owner of a local custom lighting shop, who used to do retros (oven/un-seal/halo/demon eye/seq/etc/butyl re-seal). He said they gave it up cause they were ruining some lights in the oven, from off-gassing. Have you heard/seen of this? Is it something to be concerned about? Does it have to do with the sealant the manufacturer uses? I have a Hyundai Veloster N. Thanks bro.
Great video. I'm wanting to do this to a spare set of headlights I've got but they've got a small handful of what appear to be metal tabs sticking up through the edge of the plastic. Not sure how to get a pic of it to you but would love you opinion on how to best deal with them if possible. Thanks.
I use antistatics for work. I use a special strap that clips around my footwear and my calf and I stand on a grounded mat. I hate wrist straps they catch on everything.
I don't know if anyone asked if you'd make a video showing us how to fix lens hazing from the inside, but I would be interested in seeing how you would go about doing that.
SMASHED THE LIIKE & SUBSCRIBED! first time watching a video of yours! Your vlogging skills are top notch. Tons of useful information and your way of explaining things is very relatable. Thanks for the video!
2003 Monte Carlo tail lights 200F won’t come open @ 14 mins each regular oven.. … trying 220F bought new OEM tail lights ($200) to replace both broken lens on my aftermarket barracuda tail lights($450+ a pair) did this once before . Last time used only Heat gun and it worked kind of but had to cover the edges with electrical tape because they melted and went white from lack of patience haha ugh any tips ?
Can you do a video or just a summary of how to open lights that use the permanent seal like the sprinter. That stuff just remains pretty much hard even if you put it in the oven. What do you use on those? Any advice would be just amazing. I butchered my sprinter headlights and when I get the new ones I don't want to mess them up again. On a sprinter they're a pain in the ass. One installer I met in Arizona said he won't mess with that car and if he does it's 500 bucks just to open the headlights.
Curious about the oven process. Why not use boiling water? At 212F, it's pretty close to the 220 of the oven, and you don't risk the radiant heat concentrating on one spot. You would have to remove the bulbs/wires, but the even, consistent heat might be worth the trade-off.
hey great video. i want to see if something would work the next time you take one apart and in has finger prints try using a ceramic paint cleaning/protection spray i use it on the black chrome on my car and it takes everthing away
Incredible video. I learned a lot! I think the most important thing learned was that I should not do this and instead pay someone like this pro to do it for me.🙃
yes...please make a video of how to clean the inside of a lens..my BMW has a while cloud and they are the xeon type...expensive. I wonder if they can be cleaned from the inside...THANKYOU 😃
SUPER HELPFUL VIDEOS @FlyRyde !! How many minutes do you need to put the light back in the oven for the resealing portion ? The same 7 minutes? Also, I noticed you used clamps to help push the lens back into the housing; but you only needed them briefly--is it just safer than pushing it back together by hand? Also, where do you get your clamps from? Your attention to detail is why I subscribed :-)
need some help with seal my headlights from moisture, recently replaced with halo round lights comes with angel ring, noticed some moisture got to it, whats your recommendations Please, Thanks mate .
Great content. Did my first retrofit a few years ago on my JDM Soarer and now wanna go a bit further with my G35. Where do you find your custom led parts from? Is there an online store I can look?
I have a question because I’m looking into doing mine soon. Don’t know if you are active in these comments or not still. But would love to ask you. Thanx bro
Great content! This is the first video of yours that I've watched. What if you wanted to make your drls look like a solid light bar like you see on some newer cars?
Great video man , I need some help .. so the black plastic that is right under the lens is bubbling up like the paint .. I never opened them but want to fix them .. how would I get rid of the bubbling paint .. so if u look at the lens then go down there black plastic . That part
The biggest thing that should be pointed out is DO NOT TRUST your oven temp, put a cheap $10 thermometer that stays in your oven. My brand new $1800 oven is off by as much as 60° so I have 2 different brand thermometers inside & have learned what to set my oven to using those, not what my oven says. This is a very common issue that should have been explained.
Have you ever worked on a 2011 mazda 3 with hid...turns with the steering wheel..no dtr...I want to do my lights but don't know where to get parts or to begin
Hi in one of your videos you said preheat your oven 200c. and that was electric cooker you had mate. I only have a gas cooker could you please tell me what gas mark i should have it on please. And for how long do i leave it in for. Could you please let me know thank you.
Alot of vehicles have easy headlights to open, i can name a few that dont just open with bare hands? How do you go about opening lets say the first gen CHALLENGERS. The 06-10 model challengers are hell. 06-10 chargers are so easy u barely need heat. Just wanna see a tutorial on some that dont open so easy
I had custom headlights made a year ago. They must up. I while back I brought them inside to dry out overnight and added more sealant around the whole edge to try help but still must up but still must up. Any suggestions? I did think to put in a cardboard box with hair dryer for a while to try fully dry them. But not sure how long is safe to leave them like that?

This is great for what I need. Changing the mirror from a LHD broken headlight to a RHD undamaged headlight.
Yes! Please show us how to clean the inside of the lens
Where did you get the honey comb lense? Thank you so much for the info
I use antistatics for work. I use a special strap that clips around my footwear and my calf and I stand on a grounded mat. I hate wrist straps they catch on everything.
Good video. Need to do this soon on my 15 mustang lights. Changing the led boards and upgrading the lights. After watching this I think i can...lol
Always appreciate these videos. Thanks bud.
Happy to hear 🙏
Awesome video! Did you ever make a video on how to clean the inside of the lense if it’s been touched or if it’s had moisture inside??
I have always wanted to make my headlights look great like these. Thanks a lot.
Yeah, please make That Video!
Great video, best on UA-cam!
Great job my friend, I wish you success
Can you please tell me the correct size of the ring that I have to buy to modify my lights it's a 350z as well
How about a video on what your design would be for a 2019 Tundra TRD Pro 😇😇🤔
Would be very helpful 😎😎
Yes, A video on cleaning the inside of a headlight.
First time i watched your video. Awesome and very informative. Just one question. How long do you leave them in the oven for?
I was thinking the same 😂
Puddle of headlight😂 , you are an artist, amazing work. I highly appreciate your work/art.
I would like to see you do a vid on cleaning the lens
Great video man really appreciate it from a diy guy. Informative, and great details.
I don't know if anyone asked if you'd make a video showing us how to fix lens hazing from the inside, but I would be interested in seeing how you would go about doing that.
I have been looking to buy/customize some new lights for my Nissan Xterra... After watching this I think it might be better to hire you to do the job.

Flyryde you got to make that video mane
Are all lights sealed with butyl? Mine looked like it was sealed with something clear like silicone. Does this method work for that?
2003 Monte Carlo tail lights 200F won’t come open @ 14 mins each regular oven.. … trying 220F
bought new OEM tail lights ($200) to replace both broken lens on my aftermarket barracuda tail lights($450+ a pair) did this once before . Last time used only
Heat gun and it worked kind of but had to cover the edges with electrical tape because they melted and went white from lack of patience haha ugh any tips ?
At what temperature do you heat them up to and for how long
Love the the video, very helpful..i got a question...when baking Do i have to remove the ballast??
There was never a reply 🤦🏼♂️🔥
What should you do if a little dust gets on the glossy sections?
Did you ever make a video over cleaning the inside lens? I have to do that to a pair of lights i picked.
Thanks!
Just a lil silly tip. I use plastic clip puller wedges as i remove. Pry open, put clip in, pry and wedge. Stops it moving back. ❤
Wow so neatly done. Thanks!

Just my thought, water and electric components don’t mix. If the oven technique works, why switch it up?
Yeah I don’t see why you would do that.. you would ruin the inside for sure and make your job 20x more difficult.
Wow! I'd say your designs are better than the one you bought. But the brightness is better on that one as well
I have an 2018 Kia stinger I’m im trying to put in my rgb headlight kit how do I find out if I have led in my headlights?
You know we want that vid Chris! You don't even have to ask lol
Yeah but it got you to comment tho, lmao 🤣
@@flyryde 🤣
How would you tell if you have a light with permaseal vs butyl?
I have a 2017 nissan altima, how would I be able to see what size angel ring I would need? I’ve looked up countless videos and not one can tell me
What about a glass lens remove from a metal base ?motercycle harley led seal beam full of fog?

So i got a Jetta GLI MK6. The oven at 220 for 7mins and using my man hands to pry the lights while there still hot is all I need?
Do you customize lights for others?
I domt want to modify my headlights. I want to change the clear lens. How long will it take to do that?

Looking to tackle a set of demon eyes for the 1st time on my 2014 mercedes cla45. Would you recommend removing the Headlight ballast when baking?
Do you sell already finished lights?
