I can't remember what I used, that was a long time ago. Spray the light down with the dish soap/water and you will be able to align the overlay as needed. Turn on the fogs to get the heat necessary to make the material adhere to the surface if you don't have a heat gun. Smooth out with a lint free cloth or something or other...At any rate, they came off my car a lot better than they went on. IF you can get a hold of him see if he will send you another set, customer service wise, that is the right thing to do, even though you messed up and even if it was your fault, I think you should get a free set. At least that's what I would do if I had sold you them.I got the tail overlays, not foglights.He already sent me 2 kits, first one got lost in the mail. I don't see what good another kit would do anyway if I can't get them on.

I didn't use the blowdryer, but I'm going to play around with it some more and see if that will work.I already ruined one piece, so if I do get it to work I'll probally order another set.

lost of soapy water then you can work with it as you blow dry it, you have to take your time as you have curves to conform to.
