Put them in the oven. A lot cleaner, a lot easier...

Please explain? Do you mean put them in the oven to separate them or...?

I'm still leary about wrecking one of the lights or I'd try it! :rolleyes:

paul at steed.ca is an old pro at this - when he sees this thread - he will fill in the details - the oven method that is :)

Take your light and put er in the oven at about 350F. Put it in for about 25min and yank it out and see if the glue has melted enough to wedge something between the black plastic and the lense cover. Use a towel on whatever you wedge between the back and cover so you do not scratch the inside.

If it is not coming off EASY, put it in longer. You will be able to EASILY peel back the black backing....once this is done, the amber will simply pop out by wedging something under it (again, use a clotch as protection)

Clean the inside, etc...put it back in the over to get the plastic warm enough to bend it back.....bend it back, clamp it and silicon it. VOILA!
