But could you use a heat gun only on the silicon or glue part as long as you dont let it touch the lens? Any info would help! Thanks Jaime Lea

The lens is VERY sensative to heat and the protective coating will crack (spiderweb) with a heatgun near it. The ONLY safe way to get the headlight apart is by cutting it. If you are looking for an easier way to get it apart, you're just going to find an easy way to need a new headlight. -Auto Makor- -Experimentor -Station Wagonor- -Computerizor- I have a foot that is bigger than a foot.
