just buy some Depos, the effort it'll take to do the splitting/priming/painting/bonding, you might as well have spent £50 and got some which are decent.

It can be done by your self, but you risk the chance of reducing the strength of you lights. To seperate the glass you just put it in the oven - strange i know but apparently it works 
Probably will cost the same to buy some depos.
