Did you do those headlights yourself or buy them? I saw some on ebay a while back but I plan to spray the silver surrounds black myself when I get round to cracking the lights open.

yes did them myself, just have to take your time breaking original seal, then paint and reseal.

That's what I figured. Have you got any tips cos I've heard it's a bugger of a job. Do those silver surrounds just come out when you've got the front off then?
