That sucks. No offense, but I'm glad someone else besides me had a less than ideal outcome to a DIY. This was on my list to do, but I'm thinking this is one thing I just need to drop the $$ on instead of rigging it up myself.

I wouldn't rate this DIY in the easy category. I did it myself because I could. If you believe this is outside your comfort zone then buy the AAC ones. That's the beauty of DIY's some are more challenging but more rewarding too.

I think I could do it, it's just the separating the lens from the body that would be the most pain for someone with my low level of patience.

Bill its really not that hard. You can do it. Just get a nice fresh utility knife and score the line over and over until it snaps open.

Wow thats a little more expensive then I though but still cheaper then AAC. Interesting. I've done the afterburners myself so sure I can do this myself as well. Seems possible for me. Only thing I want is how the AAC ones is clear over the leds. I wonder how they did that since the lens is textured

The texture makes no difference plus you retain your reflector. It's still bright as hell. Lights up cars around me at night. I like mine more then AAC because I made the slit where the light shines through 1/8 of an inch. Much thinner then AAC. And for me I think that looks way better.

I guess if you got those you'd still be saving money.
