opening and sealing your lights is what they do to customize it, they bake the headlight open, customize the insides, and then re-seal it so no moisture gets in

I think I was the one who gave you the information OP. He is also doing my CF quad headlights/quad demon eyes/quad angel eyes/ with tsx lens swap. black/red/CF combo theme.

I would have say to ask 180customs for their price for all that mod I believe I got quoted lot more than $700 without the tsx lens few years back and they are little busy sometimes, sometimes they are not. In my case, I did the first set with my friend who has done 5-6 set of headlights before. But IM leds do go out, I was lucky to have only 3 leds go out in 4 years.... But if you don't know what you are doing... leave it to a person who has done it before or pay someone to do it for you and get a warranty. Good luck Josh right?

Usually people only paint their housing which will only be few hundred or less, but I guess you are going for the higher end look with the side strip and IM leds and good calll on the TSX lens swap. He always give out discounts to local members or friend of friend. Should have told him you are my brother Korean right? Come out to the local National G Club meet if you can. Lots of members willing to help and we are like one big family. ^^ There is one tonight in tyson's corner AMC/TGIF parking lot 7PM eating at TGIF where they have happy hour drinks and 1/2 price appetizers.

I had someone I know with a G go to 180 and get there iornmans done and then got moisture in them and had to do them all over again himself. Then found someone local who does an impeccable job for around the same price and he does everything and every car you can think of! If you need specifics pm me.

Hahahaha my siser also drives TSX~~~
Yes I am putting in 4 TSX clear lens in my quad headlight. Everyone who has done the mod loves them and it's a cheap mod if you are opening the housing up.

I had my friend with the same problem.....it's probably from the shipping.... playing soccer with our headlights will give you the hairline crack that we can not see and cause condensation. BUT for same price.... it might be too high. just my 0.02
