WTB SS Headlights

I want to buy a pair of SS headlights, one of mine used to have water in it and it's starting to show corrosion. I want a pair of headlights without the yellow reflector (07+ I believe). Looking for $75 shipped for the pair, if you only have one that's fine. PM me and if someone else has the opposite side we'll work it out.

The tint in the headlights makes a HUGE difference.

Is that sarcasm? I never really noticed until I saw the swo next to eachother. I've been wondering about doing a really light coat of night shades on my headlights now, just to lightly smoke them.

I meant it. When you see them side by side, it makes a big difference. It makes an even bigger difference when you paint the housings black.

Hey here's what I did, I took out my headlights, poked a screwdriver through the turn signal hole and bumped the amber lense loose. Then, I put my headlights (one at a time) in the oven at 200 degrees for like 5-10 minutes. Took them out and started to pull them apart just enough so the lense would fall out. DONE! Still warm I pushed them back together and they sealed right up!

hmmmm maybe I'll do that after work tmrw. Did you have to put any extra sealant on them? Which side did you open the inside(by the grill) or outside (fender side)?

No extra sealent. I just used a screwdriver to pry open the part of the headlight closest to the fender. The "pointy" part. Some of the bottom of the headlight too. Since the headlight was still pretty warm, it sealed right back up. Just make sure you push pretty hard to get the lense back where it should be.
