Ima get me a set in January and do the tsx retrofit. I hate broke season lol
I also think its probably not necessary, but you definitely seem like me where you go over the top ahead of time so you don't gotta worry at all haha. What type of sealant did you use? And does anyone else got opinions on whether or not this really needs to be done? I'm getting mine friday and I want them to look good for a long time!
Yeah I wanted to stop anything from ever starting. I used a tub and sink sealant for the restroom. Figured if water cant get through my tub and sink, it wont get into my headlights. As far as necessity wise, I'd like to know other peoples opinions on it. See if anyone else does it.
great write up.
just two minor, general things.. you dont have to remove all 8 bumper clips that are on the top. as far as bumper clips, you really only need to remove the top 4 and the 4 on the bottom. also, you might want to wipe down all the bulbs before installing them. if there's any chance there oils/grease from your skin they can cause the bulbs to burn unevenly and possibly blow up/out.

Thanks! I think I figured the 8 clips part out when I took off the bumper. I was like, "... these other 4 are for the grill!". But thanks for the input. Do you seal up your headlights before you install? We were talking about it earlier and wanted to know if other people do it or if we're just weird.
Great DIY, I definitely seal it before put it on.
After a year of owning a set without sealing them, I had no condensation. I don't want people to read this thread and think they're doing it wrong if they don't add more sealant to a brand new headlamp. This is sort of an obsessive compulsive, "before I go putting them on the car" thing to do.

you can find them in shoe boxes, packaging for clothing esp leather goods. when i bought a brand new oem ebrake from honda, it came with 2 huge silica packets. they are usually packed along with things where moisture is a concern.
where in dallas are you located? i have a few to spare
