Well, were we stoned?? Very likely. But that shouldnt prevent us from seeing the film. It must have been really pressed on there.

Wiring the bulb wasn't too hard, but I still rechecked my wiring info and sources before I did it.

See that mess running down the sides? That is melted plastic. Let it cool down, scraped it off. Comes off easy and clean off the glass part wiht a razor blade. The metal was not so easy. i got about 90 % of it off and the rest seems to be ok there. Again, I used alcohol, and lots of rubbing. Dissolves the plastic.

As for the goo, yea, the only reason we risked it was because it was enclosed in the tube. It has been ok so far.
