      Whats up FLY! Thanks for your content man I love watching your videos. I'm about to do my headlights on my 2017 infiniti qx80 and ima swapp the projector lens out for one etched and get rid of some of the fake chrome. I'm thinking about adding some Led Strips. Whats the best ones I should use and how do I get them to work with the blinkers. Do I just wire them straight to the blinker harness?
      If you would let me know please. Thanks once again

    Wowww just found your channel and am getting myself into blacking out my headlights housing, all to find this video a little later! I have a 4G Eclipse with the factory HIDs. I tried using aftermarket halo headlights that were made for halogen models only then to find I didn’t even know I had HID! It’s been a mess. I love seeing others with eclipses! I’ve never customized headlights before though! 😭

    After watching this video and also this video of yours, "4 Types of Sequential LED Switchback Lights | FlyRyde", my question is when I take apart my 2014 Mercedes Sprinter headlights is there ever a place in the build where the clear plastic cover that was original glued on can be re-attached successfully using a rubber gasket making a tight seal if there are enough screws for the cover. You know, instead of going back in the oven.

    They where more common on what I like to call the "4g V2" or the ones made from 2010-2012, and most common on the gs sport, the where gorgeous but unfortunately much like the interior they didn't age well and most of them ended up with broken hid mechanisms and got swapped for halogens due to the new hid assemblies costing upwards of 400$ a piece

    • @flyryde
      @flyryde  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Or longer. Remember that just because the top layer of paint feels dry to the touch, doesn’t mean it’s not still drying deeper down. Those fumes have to go somewhere. Probably best not to have that somewhere be the inside of your headlights.

    • @flyryde
      @flyryde  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Not if it sat and gassed out really well, especially in the heat. Lots of times people seal up painted parts that are only dry on the surface, and then the sun bakes them dry inside the lights. The out gassing during that is what wrecks your lenses
