am sure you heat them up a think you put them in the oven on a high for about 15-20mins and the glue shud soften and just pop apart

Maybe if you had typed it right in the first place there wouldnt be a problem? Dumb fool.

As said, the standard GM headlights are meant to be a bitch to get the glass off without smashing it, you can get non smoked depo headlights which seperate much easier so they can be spayed black.

as he said, lucas and tke headlights, basically most pattern ones, not gm ones are softly glued and are clipped like the depo's are which makes them a lot easier to seperate.

i actually understood what he meant the first time.
