    Need some headlights ASAP any kind.

    well I got burned on the lights I traded a TW member for.

    It's the 1st real rain here and they each have a ton of water in them.
    pulled em off to maybe re seal and noticed there are holes drilled in the side for drainage!!! afraid to turn them on :mad: they will fry.

    So, if you have any headlights to spare, PM me.

    I shouldn't really say the name. But you could find out who if you wanted to know.
    I believe they were traded to him, but he also told me "no leaks"

    but his parents bought the headlights and THEY told him they had no leaks, so he cannot be held responsible...:facepalm:

    why not, call TC2008 out, spare the rest of the people that might do business w/ what seems to be a shady guy...your obviously not the only one that has had a problem w/ him...

    shoot, to say no leaks, and then have HOLES DRILLED IN THE LIGHTS...thats shady...

    I resealed one, put about a half tube of silicon caulk on it too.:D
    gunna do the other one and test em out.

    thanx for the replies, I stil may need a set I don't really like the halo's and projectors anyways.

    Buying used stuff is a gamble, he may have very well thought they didnt leak. Now we know

    I have a set of halo projectors and I drilled holes in the lights to reduce fogging (in a very inconspicious place) and I have no leaks.

    Must have been the seals. Dude - that sucks.

    I have a stock set boxed and ready to ship. Yosh2000 sold me a sweet set of BHLM. Are you wanting to borrow or buy? I am good either way, as they are just sitting in a box.
