    yup sure is! If you want to know how to do it, I will give a step by step instruction if you want, it's not as hard as it seems. The biggest worry to overcome is putting them in the oven.

    Thank you! It was scary at first! Putting those headlights in the oven made me extremely nervous!

    Thank you!

    Much appreciated!

    Hopefully I don't wear it out too quickly hahaha!

    Metric shit ton of parts
    Small correction. The biggest worry is not pissing off the wife for putting truck parts in the oven.
    I got the death-gaze when I did my retrofit.


    Your BHLM looks great tho!
