Yo Gene sorry I had to leave ya with only one headlight. Hope it came out allright man. I was able to help clear and paint couple of my friends lights the other day, and theirs came out fine.

For local bakers, Racing Lab in Hayward (on Industrial) has a ton of bulbs. They were the only local place that had the amber turn signals (7440) in stock, and they were only $8/each. I just cleared mine and am really happy with the results, so I can offer a helping hand for any locals. Only thing is I dont have an oven
