SKperformance Posted September 9, 2003 Posted September 9, 2003 here is another option since you have no oven chris but i doubt it matters if you might sell the car anyway The Hot Water Trick: Remove all loose pieces, such as metal clips, rubber nozzles, and screws, from the headlight housing. Fill a bucket or tub, large enough to completely submerge the headlight housing, with simmering hot water or 190-degree tap water. You can wrap the headlight housing in three garbage bags to keep them dry or you can submerge them in the water bare. Hold the headlight housing under water for 15-20 minutes. Remove and begin prying away at the seals with a flat, non-sharp straight edge such as a butter knife, ruler, or flat-head screwdriver. Work quick as the adhesive is constantly cooling and hardening. Work around the entire housing prying open a wedge between the seal. Submerge in a fresh new batch of simmering hot water for another 15-20 minutes. Remove and repeat the prying process. Repeat this process as many times as it takes before you can get a solid finger grip in-between the cover and backing pieces. At this point you want to pry open with as much brute force as you can. Once you find a weak point on the housing, exploit this weak point and continue working a larger wedge in it. Once the two pieces seperate even slightly, the whole headlight housing will snap open with ease. Press the stray strands of adhesive back into the seal groove and do not get this adhesive dirty.
bbsal Posted September 9, 2003 Posted September 9, 2003 hmm didnt think of that!that might work for the front lights but i sure would not try that for the back tail lights because they are much harder to open up!i had a ruff time opening the back ones up even with the oven and they are weak so one wrong pull and say by by to the light because it will crack!sounds like a great alternative for the front ones though! :D
bbsal Posted September 9, 2003 Posted September 9, 2003 NeiLtYmE, were did you get that chrome trim from around the interior and also if you have some closer pics of it please post because i was think of getting that for mine but wasnt sure if it would look good or not.it was either the burlwood trim or chrome i was looking to get but i never seen the chrome installed before.thanks
