alot of peeps have done the oven method. I didn't do it because i was worried about the lights melting (i tend to loose track of time and forget things in the oven and probably have add because i cant just chill for 20 mins doing nothing)
Ive also herd of peeps using a hair dryer instead of a heat gun. In reality theres no wrong way to do it as long as you dont melt it. If one way doesnt work you can always try another

hey you make a home run also you give me a idea to the rear light .you will see
Like I promised I did my part. I open the taillight and use a 100mm ccfl halo. If any one have questions about wiring and how to open the taillights this is the part jefferyss did.

Thanks for the write up and the information, I'll definitely be doing this myself in the near future.
I'd like to see some more pics of your car with the halos on, I bet it looks pretty damned sweet around dusk.
