Haha :)

Noticed when I first bought my bike that my headlights were kind of foggy. My bike is currently not running, waiting for a new TPS to come in, so I have lots of free time. I followed this tutorial on removing and dis-assembling the headlights and it was very easy.

My headlights before, very foggy! So ugly!


Headlights removed, you can see the factory black paint is fading away :(


After cleaning the inside of the right headlight with some Meguiars Plastic-X. Its like night and day!


Now time to fix that nasty faded black paint, all taped up, ready for paint.


After 3 or 4 coats of some generic black spray paint, they look almost brand new now! My tape lines arent perfect, but nobody will notice.



Now installed back on the bike:


And two pictures that turned out cool with the flash. I dont have any halo bulbs or anything, no lights are on, just reflections that the flash produced:


Definitely worth the hour it took to do it all! I recommend everyone to do this if you have those nasty foggy headlights on your Galants!

wow that did make a differnce...so i guess the galant doesnt get as much attention anymore?

Not till winter, it needs to stay in a daily driver status untill I actually buy a dailey driver. The bike gets ridden every day it does not rain :)

But trust me, changes will come this winter with the Galant!
