Headlight Restore

[cherub72]

Ooh, that looks good. How did you get them apart, oven or heat gun? I tried with a heat gun on a cheap second hand one to see what it was like before trying it on the actual headlight and it was a huge pain to get it to separate. I finally got it apart but it wasn't easy and took forever and a lot of bending of plastic which I'm sure isn't how its supposed to be.
Now would be the ideal time for me to do this as the car, very much like the rest of the country, isn't going out much !

I used a hairdryer and one of those forked screwdriver like tool, takes about 10-15 min. The other way is a large box with a round whole cut in it for heat gun (makesure headlight is out of direct position of heat gun. Leave for 10-15 mins and you should be able to just remove lenses.

Ne er done the oven method, scare the life out of me.
