That wont work with valeos mate. To do it, you need two sets. Cut the back off one set, and smash the glass off the other set.

there just standard valeo lights that have been split and painted, rather then cheap patented headlights that have had the same thing done

Basically nic, all he's asking is, how did that lad split valeos?

I know he's asking this because I too have tried splitting valeos and it just does not happen! lol, he just isn't explaining it very clear what he wants to know.
