Re: '97 Chevy Tahoe (2dr/2wd) mild custom

So I removed the old light & harness wires, just leaving the plastic base. I used my Dremel & also hand-sanded the plastic smooth. I also had to fill the old holes & did so with JB Weld Plastic, sanding smooth again after it set. Then I drilled a hole into the plastic base to fit the new LED light.

No new pics yet, but I'm in the process of connecting the new light wiring to the old. I put a coat of white spray paint on the plastic base to clean it up, & I cleaned/polished the clear plastic housing/lens.
