Hey everyone,

Got my windows tinted the other day. 20% all around, and I love it. I makes it look really dark with the black on black...

My question is this: I would like to replace my license plate lights, because one is burnt out (it has been since i bought the car). It appears that the person who had the car before me tried to get the screw out to repace the bulb, but stripped it. What is the best method for getting that screw out? Should I drill it out? If i drill it out,can I puta new screw back in? I saw a stripped screw set at autozone, should I pick that up and do it? Any suggestions are welcome!

 

first thing...your car isn'tblack on black, u dont have black rims, but yea i got mine tinted to, black car with black interrior but doing thefront window was retarted..have fun with the cops

 

I dont think he has the windshield done, i think its just the angle

 

by black on black he meant the interior is black...

black on black from the factory is the paint color and interior color.... black on black on most car forums means black rims on a black car...

just thought i would clear that up

 

tints look awesome.....i have mine 5% limo tint in back and 50% front....but i like urs better since its all 1 color.....

 

Sorry for the confusion. Black interior, black paint. The black rims are somewhere in the future. And yeah, its the angle, I would never do my windshield, Im smarter than that. I dont drive a honda anymore, give me some credit!

Xenon's going in sometime this week hopefully


By the way, any answers to the question in my original post?? Damn screw.

 

have you tried a slotted screw driver to get it out ?
maybe just a bigger size screw driver, i cant imagine the head is totally stripped out by a screw driver just trying to get it out

just went to the vdub dealer the other day to pick up those bulbs
only a few bucks

 

If the head is sticking out, you may be able to get some needle nose vise grips on it.

Otherwise there are a bunch of different screw extracter kits out there that you could try. That will probably be your best bet.

I wouldn't advise drilling it unless you have too. More than likely, you will damage the threads while drilling and then you won't be able to get another screw in there.

Tint looks good BTW, nice car.

 

where in mo are you?
