Link to these??

I made them. Found glass lens style headlight.
And bought hid kit from morimotohid.com

Baked lens in oven pulled glass off, cut housing for hid and put it all back together. Had a computer fail but between its hard drive and my new computer I might can recover rest of the pics

Thank you, I’ll probably always continue improving on it as I drive it. It’s a lot easier to work on when this isn’t my primary vehicle like my last 400s were.

Nice, this is one of my favorite threads, right now. I love seeing people taking old broken stuff and making it nice again.

Tackled trying to glue the mounting plastics back to the left rear window glass this morning. Due to pure ignorance, I broke it trying to remove it from @bluex’s parts truck after drilling out the regulator rivets and some twisting and turning (FYI, you only have to remove those two 10mm bolts to free the rear glass lol)

Here’s the piece I need to glue back to my window, I still have the old channel on there to help with clamping until the glue dries.

Remember to lube the rollers and track. Oh when I got my new driver door regulator I changed the track that attached to the glass . Ended up bending and trashing the track. Luckily I ordered a new track ahead of time.. it was a pain though

For hopefully a little piece of mind a some extra reinforcement, I cut up an old front bumper baffle. I’ve had that HF “dremel” for about 3 years, this is the second time I’ve ever used it after buying it to install steering wheel radio controls on my GMT900.


Pieces cut out of the baffle, I used the sanding attachment to clean them up after this picture.

Glued the pieces over the broken parts. I’ll likely add one more piece once I can move the c clamp

Had to have some supervision of course lol

In theory this will work, but I truly don’t know if it will. It’s sorta ghetto unless it does actually work lol. Hopefully this will keep me from having to find another rear door glass.

Absolutely! I’ve lubed and cleaned everything behind the door panels. The less times I need to be inside the doors, the better lol
