Hi was interested to know how do you take the front lense off the headlights and how difficult is this procedure?

 

Thanks

Easy peasy, get the whole unit nice and warm at 100 degrees in the oven and just lever carefully and prise apart, the glass is quite robust.

 

If they've been apart before even easier but it's not a difficult job :cool3:

not too hard... the most difficult part it getting the headlights out .. lol...
