Just use some double sided tape and attach to your headlight lens. | | | | | 06-06-2007, 02:48 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Memphis, Tn Posts: 1,299 |

I got the tape, it came with the eyelids. i need to wait one more day for the paint to dry but I also might wait to put them on when i get my new headights. or just take them off and get some new tape. Well i will be posting some pics with my eyelids and M3 mirrors when the paint dries and I can put them all on. __________________

what kind of tape was it? double sided foam tape? or jut the thin plastic scotch-like tape? I need to install mine, and foam tape makes sense, but I would like to confirm. | | | | | 02-12-2010, 04:17 AM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |
I used foam tape | | | | | 02-12-2010, 07:08 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Memphis, Tn Posts: 1,299 |
I would use a double sided tape that can hold strong. The foam tape is a good idea. __________________
