I'm new member and i have no access in the mod. Forum.

I opened the LT 2.0 from young today, look here for the pics: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wywe6lgbjjakboe/hoF3O_87YK

You need a vice with alu bakes and 2 cloths for the protection: http://www.feinewerkzeuge.de/schraubstock307782.jpg

Gently heat the closure lavatube and clamp quickly in the vise and pry while pulling.
Carefully so that the wires from the power button does not break off. I break one solder, but I could repair again it.

Subsequently assemble, is very tricky. You needs little chinese finger and much patience.

Good look!

Why in the hell did you take it apart. This is the same ne I have.

The chrome is totally worn out. I want to repaint it.
And install a new connection for the atomizer, the thread is broken.

I thought there was a mod for it I did not see. Yours does look pretty beat up. I got mine in black. I can use a sharpie to clean it up.
What color are you going to go to?

 

[astartes]

No I'm not done with it. I just wanted to say that you can open it.
What color I'm not sure yet. Maybe in my car color (Polished Metal): http://www.civinfo.com/wiki/images/d/dd/Civic2009grey.jpg

Nice civic. Where in Germany are you from? I have always wanted to visit.

 

[astartes]

When you want visit, then Dusseldorf, Hamburg, Munich .. are nice cities!

Great thread!

I have the same problem with my Lavatube (Young June) - broken atomiser connection and worn chrome. I've tried before to take it apart with no luck so will try heating it.

I guess its just the very top you heat? I'm worried about melting the wiring or electronics inside!

How did the re-spray go? Do you have any pics?
