DIY Step by Step Headlight Restoration (w/ 3M Headlight Restoration System)
มุมมอง 3133 ปีที่แล้ว
I restore this Mercedes CLS 550's headlights using 3M Headlight Restoration System and clear coating for a longer lasting finish(ChrisFix's idea). I have done this a few times and really like the results. Be careful when clear coating as the ingredients in the paint were changed since the first couple of times I did this process and made the paint application more difficult. Good luck! :)

    Great video, where I have issue is companies that market intakes as “ cold air “ which is misleading because true cold air intakes require the air filter to be front of the vehicle away form the engine bay where it will suck in hot air from the engine off gases. Which this one does. It’s more of a “ mid Ram intake “ And not a cold air intake. But regardless this is a great video. Thanks for posting it 👌🏽🤙🏽

    keep in mind that a larger IC demands more forced air to reach the same pressure levels in the intake mani. sometimes, bigger is not better, sometimes you just need "stronger", such as with the stock IC which has weak welding and thin walls. hahn IC only barely fits into the fascia, and leaves the charge tubes offset from one another. you should invest in hptuners before you get too far along. here you are replacing parts but you don't even have diagnostic logs of what is going on inside your engine. we stopped running Trifecta after blowing two engines (over three kappas.). now we tune and log, swap a part? tune and log, tune and log, tune and log. doesn't matter what it is. if you're not retuning after a part swap, and the tune isn't based on actual log data, you're just rolling dice and calling it good. as for that hahn IC, i ran the same thing on my first solstice for a while but eventually went with a smaller IC. did not have to grind/cut/melt anything to get it to fit. great video, hope you keep publishing.

    I have the same vehicle that I have had for almost 12 years now. I got the DDM charge tubes about a year an a half ago. All the pitfalls of what you filmed are definitely REAL ... on the install. I did not, however, change the air box. This is an EXCELLENT VIDEO and had I watched it BEFORE I did my install ... I'd have had less trouble. I have the GMPP upgrade in turbo chips that were never installed properly by GM. I researched etc ... and finally found the "fix" to it, from the Solstice Forum in Canada (online). I lost my intercooler a year ago (ruptured). So when i had that replaced and the new charge tubes already installed, the Sol idled considerably smoother and the shifting improved dramatically. (automatic trans). I then had GM "tune" the ECM to everything that was new and the car performs brilliantly. Again, this is a tremendous video for those looking to get rid of the original BENT / CRUSHED / DENTED GM tubes that alter the air flow (badly) to the turbo. The car idles very smoothly now and drives smoother was well. If you PUNCH it ~ the gears change beautifully as they shift up to higher ratios. The GMPP chips that used to be available may still be available but need to be tuned to your vehicle's ECM. Thanks for the most EXCELLENT video. I downloaded it as part of my "repairs" folder on my computer.👍👍

Can't determine if it's left or right tho. I'll be replacing my wheel speed sensor integrated with the abs to see if that's the problem.

However purchasing it will means it will be my daily, the size and space isn’t a concern just the reliability as I will need this to last me a good 2-3 years bare minimum.
