I seen your review of the smoked headlights from amazon. Direct Replacement Headlights/lamps Assembly Set Compatible with Ford F150/Mark LT,Smoked/Clear. I got the same ones and put in led bulbs but notice the light displays wierd..it creates these weird artifacts and progects that out so the light doesn't disperse smooth like the light from the oem headlights. Have you noticed this on yours? I'm thinking it's just the cheap headlight so I'm looking for another headlight that will disperse the light more like the oem headlight but do it smoothly. If anyone knows of a headlight for an 05 f150 that is smoked but doesn't seem to display light weird let me know.
@@A.C.71 I actually replaced the bulbs with brighter lights from the parts store. Unfortunately, I only had the truck for a short time after making the video…but I never noticed anything weird other than because of them being smoked the lights weren’t as bright
@@TonyCollumtheHOWTOHERO I see. Thanks
“I bought em” that had me dead!! Like I felt like it was coming but I wasn’t sure if that’s what he was going to say 😂😂
this guy is actually so hilarious i came just for a quick tutorial, but when you said i bought the new headlights i died of laughter and then subscribed 😂
This is one of the best videos for this type of thing 😂 He sacrificed his time so we don't have to. DIY projects can get pretty crazy!
This is why I always think twice before DIY. Sometimes I just want it done right without sweating. Nice video!
BEST most truthful video on the net regarding trying to VHT headlights. ABSOLUTELY NO MATTER what anybody else swears on the interwebs, the VHT is utter CRAP!!!!!!!! I'm very talented with paint and the VHT look is for kids and those that don't care about crap. Stevie Wonder could see more than a VHT tinted headlight allows!! Thanks for the vid!
I think I’m pretty talented with paint as well…this was a horrible decision and looked terrible
This was entertaining and informative. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
So freaking funny, I was so excited watching the video and at the end you bought them new😂😂😂😂. 🤝🤝
The Haircut Comment Killed Me 🤣🤣🤣😂
I wouldn't do headlights with the spray either, but I'm gonna try it on my side marker lights. Don't think I saw the rear tail lights finished at the end?
I used brake cleaner to renove vht tirnt does not damage the plastic.Just spray on a small towel amd clean, until is all remove. Finish with cleaning any residue with alcohol.
Very nice video thanks really enjoy your adventure but I was hoping to see your tail ights
Reminds me of the time (a few hours ago) I removed my headliner from my car and decided it would be a great idea to lay it on my bed to spray paint it. 10mins of spraying the product vs 3 hrs of cleaning SPRAY PAINT OFF EVERYTHING IN THE ROOM. The walls, carpet, blinds, folded clothes in corner of the room...my eyelids, ears... Mmmmyep.
Why?
Doing something like that should only be accepted if you have been huffing spray paint in your bedroom.
Bro even if it didn’t get on everything your headliner would smell so bad for like a year
Lol I love it .... bravo
How did the taillights turn out ?
I just wanted something with a slight smoke.. i did one layer and it is so dark im scared to go again
I liked the lenses better when you spray tinted them! They look better darker
Did the same with my 2002 f150. I hated the night shades. Had to buy actual smoked lights.
Nice video brother
You were way too close with that spray can
Honestly the easiest, cheapest way is to buy some Viivid head and tail light tint wrap, just be sure to clean and dry the lens before applying so it doesn't get deposits. Heat gun, razor and vinyl are all ya need, and when a state boy wants it off, easy peel no residue, and then you re wrap when you get home for $5 and it lasts I've had mine on over a year and it was my first time wrapping. I highly recommend it for a risk free solution.
Can anyone tell me why im having elergicreactions to my headlights. There spider cracking. I did water sand them so I thought they were clean. This happened 2 times. Don't know why its doing this. Only other thing is try some wax and green remover
I messed up 2 bro but ill try again n again
Should of put a clear coat after spraying and then compound they would of looked good. But for 70 bucks you were better off buying. For my Cadillac cts mine will be 200 plus
did you ever think about trying Fingernail Polish Remover?
It's okay my man. I still mistakenly buy cabbage instead of lettuce at the grocery store.
😂😂
I used gasoline and a towel to remove mine, they looked brans new!
This exact same thing happened to me. You can use brake cleaner to remove the spray very easily instead of sanding it, just be careful of body paint or remove your lights. You can also just leave the peel coat off all together and you will have a much smoother and glossy finish with just vht. I love your video tho! Good diy and looks good in the end.
That is an awesome tip! Thanks for sharing. I definitely should have left off the peel coat
Brake cleaner works but it ate through my headlights all the way down to the paint
I used gasoline before to remove a similar product from my b5.5 tail lights. Worked pretty well. But with the price of gas these days you might just be better off buying a new pair of smoked lights.
You can take it off by using the spray itself. You spray it on a rag and wipe the headlight. Takes it right off.
@@xbocax16 will the light look as it did before the paint. Won't be foggy or fuzzy, correct?
I liked the way you had it @ 7:00. All you had to do was clear coat it...that's what im gonna do to mine..
Thank you…but I don’t think the video conveyed just how splotchy they were. Not a good look up close.
@@TonyCollumtheHOWTOHERO its ok we're not perfectionists😏
You're supposed to only use the spray tint (not the peelable spray) and then finish them with a spray of clear coat.
Whoever told you to spray them first (or at all) with peel spray is why they didn't turn out correctly... plus you didn't clear coat them in the end.
If I ever see you in public it’s on buddy. We throwing hands!
😂😂
It’s been a year are they still good ? A year later
I sold this truck shortly after making this video.
@@TonyCollumtheHOWTOHERO LOLZ
Next time tint vinyl the ligths better , and to remove the paint use brake cleaner
Break cleaner takes it right off.
Best part...."I bought em" 😅
It's better to pay $20 for vivid light smoke lens tint film it stretches and is even shade all the was through
On a f150 that year , one bolt on top and the headlight is out
I knew you bought em
😉
No No, the Lens Tint and Nite-Shades are competitors of each other. Plus the Lens Tint is not peelable. You weree thinking of Plasti-Dip or Hyper Dip. Or Peel Coat I guess lol
Well you sanded it with 1500 grit sand paper..lol should’ve fully sanded to 3500 and instead of re clear coating used the tint as a clear
Could’ve just used rubbing alcohol or goo gone
Straight up click bait. Just know don’t watch the video, he bought em.
Not me wanting the dark nasty look
@3:19
Should have just used window tint would be exact same
Yeah, but I wouldn’t have this great fail video.
Trust tree:)
You should have just wrapped them,
OR!!!…. You could have bought the vinyl tint…
But I wouldn’t have this nice fail video.
The spray tint is garbage... just buy tint film and can get it in different darkness and it looks alot better
Waste of time.....
I know right! Now imagine being the guy that tried it and failed…hence the word fall in the title 🤦🏻♂️
Lol I just thought why didn’t he take lights off.
I know, right? I don’t know why I was trying to do things the hard way.
Brake cleaner - Next time….
I just watched the wholeee video for nun wth
I Guess the word fail in the title wasn’t clear enough?
