and I used Pratley quickset clear http://www.pratley.co.za/DIY_Adhesives.htm# cos its the only South African product that has ever been to the moon!

probably any decent clear epoxy would do. Araldite?

The only concern I'd say is if you're taking the time to split your headlights, make sure you get some quality LEDs in there, otherwise you'll only be re-splitting them in 3 months because the "cheap" ones have stopped working Thumbs Up RRS gone

I know Laughing that is my concern too. But it really was easy taking the lights apart once I left them in the sun for a while

The cheapies are pretty bright in our African sun though. Will report in a couple months.

Now I need ideas on what to do with my D3 lights. Am gonna detango them immediately, but would like to put some DRL's in as well.

Rolling with laughter

It doesn't matter really... I have (ready to install due to size cock up by CA Automotive) 2 120mm and 2 106mm,

At the time I suggested 2 pairs of 120mm rings I thought my 106mm rings were too small... but it actually turned out CA Automotive sent me a 85mm and 95mm ring and not 2 106 rings as I though.

Looking at my 106mm rings I think they are fine and will probably look better than 2 equal sized pairs.
