Lmao, yeah. It's not hard. The DIY is very simple and straight forward. only reason why I haven't done mine is because I've been so busy and someone did a hit and run on my car.

its stupid easy,just take your time. http://www.lightwerkz.net/index.php has a few tips and write ups.
Very easy, Ive done several for other ppl as services. Of course when I started, I had to test out with my own glass headlights. After that I started doing a bunch for condensation resealing, clearing, etc.
It can be a bit tricky to do the work cleanly though, just depends on how much silicone sealant is on there. Wear gloves, avoid working on it on carpet, but also work on a soft surface such as a large dirty towel/rag. Also if you have clamps with rubber guards, it helps to make a tighter seal. Let me know if you still need help...

low temps for a couple minutes. the 2 keys to this are use BBQ paint(stands up better to repeated heat cycles) add a small small bead of sealant for good measure. i started mine at about 4pm and was finished by 5pm. let them sit over nite since it was winter time and installed the next day. its been perfect since.
