i installed the 6spd strut bar today. cant wait to take this bithc for a spin.

Now i noticed my passenger side headlight has some moisture build up. i am so pissed. i worked so hard on the black house DIY and now this. i was a Newbie then. so i didnt bake them (used heater blower). since i didnt bake them i couldnt reuse the sealant they used. i scrapped it all off and then used black silicone to seal them back up. it was such a messey job, so i guess it was a matter of time. dont know what to do now.

You should have left the sealant on there and re-used it.  I have found that the oven is the best method to evenly heat the adhesive/sealant that Honda uses.  After I get everything heated up and together, I use multiple spring loaded clamps to hold the headlight together while it cools down.

I bet you could pull your headlight off, heat it up, and use clamps to get a better seal.  It's worth a try.

id say preheat oven to 300, put headlight in for 3 minutes, take it out and open it
i used this to open fx35 headlights which looked to have same sealant. when i put first headlight for 4 minutes bottom clear lens  melted a little(not that i care for this headlights, just needed to get projectors out)
it was little harder to get second headlight apart that was in for 3 minutes, so i think if you do 3.5 minutes it should be fine

I usually heat the oven to 250, turn it off, then put the headlight in for 4-5 minutes.

I fixed some RCA's for some of my video monitors.  I will eventually connect them again.

did a thorough check of the whole car (everything from computer wise to mechanics) and found only a few problems.

-adjusted my rear shoes
-ordered an auto-tensioner assembly/serpentine belt
-re-fit my grill (part of it was sticking out from the bottom; don't know how but just pushed it back and it's fine for now)
-bent back one of my exhaust hangers so the muffler would sit center in the bumper cut-out
-ran a full diagnostics scan and found out my cars engine is running healthier than a yukon denali with a quarter of the miles that i have (30k miles on the yukon and the LTFT in particular was off the chart at 19% above ideal. told the guy to take it to the dealer)
-figured out how to take the 'Not an Ashtray' thing off



boring day at work. i was done with my quota at 11am (had a few cars that didn't get cashed out till this morning) and couldn't leave till 5 so i killed 3hours meticulously going through my car... then sat in the office and did management work haha.

I let it get snowed on. Wasn't expecting anymore snow this year, and this morning happened. Fuck it. Hopefully I put the Teins in this weekend.
