    So i've bought some new headlight inserts and ready the guide...

    Can i just reheat the lights and use the same glue or do i need to apply some more.

    I put the whole headlight in the oven on 130' for 10 mins.... Came apart in secs, plus there were no condensation in the headlight... They have been on for about 3-4 month now!
    I went with the black gloss and baked the inserts in the oven after spraying, came out well mint!!

    Quick question and I know it's a waste of time but I love the car, it's a 5 door 1.1 forte... Perfect and cheap for my first car....
    My problem is I want a vt kit but can't find one anywhere, can anyone help me out finding one??? I've been on eBay and gumtree but no luck so far.

    he was a bit of an 'iffy' seller, i wouldnt use him again IMO.. he lied to me about when he sent the item out, it took so long i would have had to end up getting it from a scrappy.. lucky for him in the end i didnt need it
