Baked... headlight?!?

Well I got bored and ended up baking my new headlights in the oven! This is the way to soften the rubber glue and pry open the lens from the holder.

Remove all plastic and metal from your headlight. For the Camry I had to remove 4 clips (2 top and 2 bottom), 3 screws and a plastic holder from behind the highbeam, a plastic stopper, the rubber foot and the clip that holds the H4 halogen bulb. Also to remove the holders (2 of them) I will show you this later :D

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and prepare your headlight on the tray. Turn the oven off and place the headlight in the oven for 10-15 minutes.

After you take your headlight out, pry a corner open with a flat head screwdriver. Remember to hold the headlight with something heatproof as it will be HOT.

Pictures above are of the lens and the housing separated. Now to wait for my delivery to arrive from America!

I guess a disclaimer is in order. Do not do this if you don't have the confidence or done more research than read my blog. I take no responsibility to anything you damage (either your possessions or yourself) while trying this or anything else posted.
