if your thinking about taking your headlight apart, I just did mine a little bit ago. I just used a blow dryer and some flat head screw drivers, and just kinda work the two halfs apart section by section. I have a bugeye, but I know guys who have done this with blobeyes to. Just be sure you take out the little screws from the back off the light if there are any before you start prying cause you'll break pieces off the crome bezel. while you're in there you should paint the crome flat black! looks way better haha, just lightly sand the crome so the paint has something to stick to. anyway hope this helps..pm me if you have any other questions.

thanks for the info, i was planning on painting them black. i thinks it looks good. well once i get my car back from eq tuning, then its on...

its alot easier than it sounds..so what you dont wanna do is have the lights touching any part of the oven.and set the oven for 180 degrees and leave the lights in for 20 mins and they will come right apart. and do that again after your done with blacking them out so the glue gets sticky again. so thats it good luck and take your time

is the glue thats gonna be on there enough?? or do i need to buy more glue after i take the headlights apart, im just worried about doing it, and a little while after my lets getting condensation..

you can reuse the glue, just heat em back up then screw them on. when you take them apart, separate them then wait a sec for the glue to cool down cus it'll stretch like cheese and stick to rest of the headlight.
