Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

    Seperating Fog lights

    I have searched and didn't even come up with irrelavent matches. I recently picked up a set of fog lights from the J-Y, but the lenses are in desperate need of some polishing, both inside and out. So how would I go about polishing the inside of the lenses? The only thing I can think of is to seperate the lenses from the housing but how would I go about doing that? Would I do it just like seperating the headlight lenses, just check them every few minutes at like 225*? I think I may have just answered my own question. Thanks in advanced.

    yes.. you open the fogs just like the headlights.. it's next to impossible to polish the "in-side" of the lens since it's ribbed and not flat.. gl..

      Yea 225 should be good. You can even pop them open using a heat gun/hairdryer if you dont feel like using the oven.

        type g might know a trick for those ribs on the inside.

        maybe one of those mini polish balls like for drills or something?

          I'm guessing there may have been some water in there, making the inside of the lense look murky? How about wetsand and polish the outside, and then go from there? The insides could have water spots/staining, but they won't need actual polishing since they don't see any wear/tear. I've opened up several sets of foglights, I've always done 175* but I think 225* would be fine since it's a proven method.

            How long did you leave it in the oven for?

              I turned my oven on the lowest setting till it got pretty warm then turned it off and sat them in there for about 10 minutes. You might wanna do them one at a time because when i went to do the second one it cooled down.
