Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

I removed the headlights, taped and covered them with newspaper. I wet sanded the amber plastic, spayed them with a few coats of VHT Night shades tail light transparent black spray and 3 coats of clear coat. Today I wet sanded them with 1500 grid sandpaper and hand polished them with polishing compound. Here's an update. I ordered 19 LED bulbs for the front turn signals and backup lights will update with a new pic when they get delivered.
