De-tangoing Headlights
 

Does anyone know of anywhere that can de-tango the headlights on a blob STi at "reasonable" cost?

Seen a video on it, and have decided I won't even contemplate trying to do it myself, so wondered if there is anyone in essex who can do it?

'Cos I work late mid week, it will have to be somewhere open on a saturday to get it done (preferably in the mornings), which makes it harder to find anywhere !

Any suggestions?

Go on mate, do it yourself. How hard can it be? :D

TBH most people do it themselves. There has been the odd offer on SN by private individuals in other areas to do it for friends or for people local to them but nothing formal.

You could try a body shop type place like ABW.

I did my own but when I was doing it I thought there is no way I would like to do someone elses. Mainly because if you do even accidently mess up it would be expensive to put right. I used a hair dryer not the oven method.

As Frayz says, it's not so much hard as fiddly. And if you get any mastic on the reflectors it would be a pig to get off. Also you need to be confident that you re-sealed it water tight when you put it all back on the car.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Mark ;)

I'd do it. lol. :D

Easy as baking a cake ...

:p :p

or a slightly more expensive option is buy some jap spec lights... ;)

Saw that - it's what made me decide I should do it.......... or at least ask !!

Might wait till I talk to them about some other ideas I have.......... Did send them a PM a couple of weeks ago about my ideas, but they never replied - probably still laughing on the floor.......... :lol1:

I had mine done (when I had a blob) by Charles, STi_Lad

He doesn't come on here no more, but I know he still does stuff for people. He's just over the dartford crossing

That's who did mine too! Top bloke! :thumb:

Even nicer when the insides are painted back as well :luvlove:

theres a thread on members gallery about it somewhere

Just sent him a PM - fingers crossed!!

Looie,

who have you Pm'd?

Charles?

YHPM

Did a search for STi_Lad and he came up as posting on a recent thread.

I Think thay maybe the wrong person mate

Not seen Charles post on here for years

Maybe wrong though :wonder:

I would love to get mine done and like looie i know i would make an arse of it (no patience and big hands you see) Would quite happily pay or give a fellow ESC member a crate of beer to do mine, so if you do find someone who can do it please give me a heads up (or vice versa if i find someone!)
