I get that. I figured as cheap as they were it was worth a try. I’m highly disappointed. Quality just isn’t there. Even for cheap lights they’re not that good. Check out RockAuto but choose CAPA Certified in the drop down. I have heard good things about the CAPA Certified stuff. A pair of 04...

If I were to do it again (and I likely will in a year or so) I’d order the 05+ ones. I really like he look of the newer headlights.

Happened to see these:

Willing to meet up somewhere?

I’ve known I had a slight exhaust manifold leak for a while. I’ve been putting off doing anything about it but it has gotten especially bad lately. Anyone have any experience replacing the gaskets on a V6? There seems to be all kinds of threads about V8 manifolds, but I’m struggling to find any...

2012 3.5L. He was in and out of the dealership to get it fixed under warranty. They kept sending it back “greased” and within a few hundred miles he would go back because the grease slung out and the clunk was back. They refused to replace the driveshaft. He said it was like they were trying to...

I actually had a sliver of metal lodged in my eye for several days before going to the ER. My eyes are dark brown and the sliver was in that area so I couldn’t see it until it started to rust. The Dr. used a small reamer to cut it out. That was memorable for sure. Carrier looks good so far...

My brother in law had one. Went through several driveshafts. Crazy vibrations. He ended up trading it in and getting a commuter car. Didn’t need 2 trucks since my sister has an F350

Update: DT Moto is sending me a new passenger side light. They specifically said to seal the new one before I install it. Sounds like they know their lights have crappy seals. I guess I’ll see how my factory hybrid holds up and then replace it if needed.

Today I pulled the headlight back out and poured the water out of it. It’s been raining a good bit here in Maryland. The water seems to have stripped the chrome off part of the reflector. Anyway, I decided to bake it and pull the lens. Into the oven at 150° for 25 mins or so. While the...

Yeah they are DT Moto

Yeah. I should have just sealed them up better to start with but I figured I’d roll the dice. I lost. At least on the one side.

Bought a set a couple weeks ago. Got them installed. Leaking already. This was after a light rain. Sorry it's sideways. You can see water pooled at the bottom of the lens. The passenger side headlight is completely fogged now and I need to pull it back out.

Put these on. I really like them so far. Got new headlights. Took a chance and didn't seal them. Leaking already. :gun5:

What awning is that?
