Doing This Will Make Your Headlights Look Brand New Permanently Bill: To be a Body and Fender man in today's world you got to understand Lego Theory LOL. All my frame and Fender started with Lachlan and wobbling and falling off. It was due to all those little plastic tabs drying out breaking. At First Sight by him 4 at a time for three bucks a whack. But then I wised up. Order the bag of 100 online for 12 bucks and bought a tool pop them out. Just replace them all took about 5 hours. It's a 2006 and got a hundred eighty thousand miles. Starting to look pretty grow with all that little plastic panels falling off. And the fenders and bumper flapping around. Replace catalytic converter. Everything else good to go. Keep them fluid rotations and brake pads up I think I'll get another hundred and twenty thousand out of it. I'm the kind of guy and pay a little extra for the lifetime brake pads. Replace the old ones and save the old ones in the box and take them back to the store when the new ones wear out and exchange them. so that way I'll have a new pair ready to go when I replace the worn ones. These parts dealers hate to see me coming LOL. They don't like being my storage Shelf.

Does anybody know how I can find replacement headlights that are good quality (but not overpriced) for my 2000 Toyota Solara? One of my headlights is broken and is only staying connected by the wiring and some Guerilla tape. I don't have the knowledge to replace the headlight assembly myself, but maybe I can save some money by supplying the parts for the mechanic.

Toyota taking queues from GM with that headlight set up. This is why I love Ford, to change a headlight assembly in my Mustang it is 4 bolts and about 5 minutes. Fords are the easiest to work on by far. Other manufacturers seem to sit around and try to think up ways to make things way more complicated and harder than they need to be.

Headlight assemblies in the UK normally quote no bulbs included, maybe to stop people asking for refunds for dud bulbs. My old Honda Civic required you to totally remove the bumper to change the headlight, so opted for Plast-X and Turtle Wax sealant instead. it kept them respectable and was less hassle than sanding and spraying clearcoat.

It helps if you put a dab of Dielectric grease on these connectors. Especially if you live in humid or wet climates. It keeps the moisture out. Scotty doesn't have to worry about that so much he lives in Texas where your standing knee-deep in a flood and sand is blowing in your eyes. LOL but they do have those cowgirls yeehaw.

I wish it could be that easy. Here in EU you'll get big fine on the road and your car doesn't pass technical inspection, because these aftermarket headlights doesn't have right EU approval. We have to manually restore the original ones or buy OEMs and of course the version for EU. US version is the same problem: -(

Hey Scotty I have a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder se with 86k miles on it. The transmission is starting to shift a little harder and while from a coast and added gas it makes a jerk feeling. It doesn t slip or anything. Should I get a fluid change or could it be a u joint in the driveshaft.

Scotty, please help. Where would I get a headlamp for a 2018 Buick Encore? The blinker doesn't work and they want over a 1000 for the headlamp replacement part only (plus labor. The headlamp is clean and clear. Could I just replaced the blinker? . They are telling me no. THANKS

I had some badly faded covers. Used some toothpaste with baking soda and peroxide and a damp sponge. Cleared off probably 80-90% of it. Cost was 2 bucks and change at dollar tree. Then used some blue magic lens sealer (less than 10 bucks) and called it a day!

Wow! Replacing your headlights with brand new ones wi make your headlights brand new. Because they are brand new. Makes sense but might be a lot more expensive than finding a good used one in a junkyard from a less sun intense area of the country.
