    I got them already. I went and shot base footage last night of my stock headlights. As long as I get these installed today I will be shooting results tonight. Should have the video done by the end of the week.

    I just cut the back of my boot so the heat sink would fit through and put the boot back on. After the boot is on all is good. I've had no problems and I've had them in for almost a month now

    I am doing a detailed video and plan to have it completed this weekend. It will have a light comparison between stock and the LEDs. I will also do another video of how I install them.

    Actually I found out that the metal right below the LED spins and slides off. Then you can slip the boot right over it no need to cut or modified it at all

    I couldn't get mine to lock back in when I put the ring on the boot then tried to lock the ring back into the bulb. So I just cut it

    Yeah it took a little bit of work but if you sorta fold it over itself you'll get it. I really didn't wanna cut it in case for whatever reason I wanted to put it back to stock

    Thanks. I'm gonna get another set of rubber boots from the junk yard and give it a try. I just got annoyed screwing with it and wanted to get them done so I could see what they look like. Lol

    No problem! Yeah I know exactly how you feel. I currently only have one side done due to it getting dark and being -15 but I just was determined to get one on to see the pretty colors

    I have directions that Southeast Overland sent me if anyone is having problems installing. It won't let me post the pdf file though.
