    they are actually inside the housing...I got the idea from the GMCs and the Fords...I ordered the silicone rope light off ebay, perfect fit, then took brand new headlights and put them in the oven at 280 for 8 minutes, pulled them apart and used the blue top gorilla super glue, the only thing that will adhere to silicone, drilled a small hole for the wires, sealed it, then back in the oven at same time and temp, added new headlight putty and BAM!!! Super cool at night and in the mornings
