    i can't get the extension to line up to the 3rd screw in the headlight... any tips? i tried aligning it with our fingers.. we can touch the top of the screw but the bit doesn't reach. wtf? it touches the tip of the screw and thats it. i've been at it for the past hour. both sides are like this.

    i've tried both 25 and 30.. i'm assuming it's the 30 torx bit right?

    If its not long enough then its not long enough... you cant make it longer. But if you have a flathead that is longer it will also work. That is what I use. The flathead can fit inside the wedges of that screw and it works just as well.

    2nd. I used a flathead for mine too. I found it a lot easier to get lined up...

    damm what a bitch that was. after the debacle with that screw, then came the amber lens caps. first one was a breeze... just stuck a screw driver from the back and popped it out. the second one wouldn't budge. the chrome plastic around it kept coming off with it. after drilling holes and playing with it for awhile.. we finally got it off but chipped a tiny chrome piece off the circular area right where the bulb comes in from and a few smears from trying to wipe fingerprints off. ahh well, its not noticeable once put together and looks great. the amber bulbs i got from xenonmods doesn't match my sidemarkers though.. it's almost red/orange. good thing it'll only come on for turnsignals.

    oh and instead of using the oven cuz i was at my buddy's shop.. i just used a heat gun for only a few minutes and it seperated easily.
