Clearing/Painting 04 Head lights
Wednesday, March 30, 2005 5:05 PM
Sorry for asking, but I have looked through the faq, and searched for endless hours looking for a good guide to clear and paint 04 cav headlights. First when I saw it, it sounded like the easiest thing to do ever. While it still does, what I don't understand is how you get the clear casing off... I read in another post that they stuck it in a oven or something to loosen the adhesive? Sounds kind of risky to me... And the last question, if you do have to heat the lamp up to release the adhesive, how to you secure the cover when you are done?

Thanks for any help!

Ok i found some things, let me rephrase my question.

What heat, and how long do you cook em for? And what type of sealant do you use to re-seal when finished?

put it the oven at 180 for 7min and try if its not easy put it back in for about 3-4 min keep doing this untill its easy to pry it off. seal it back up with clear silicone. search for 04 clear corners i just did a quick how to about 1 week ago. hope that helped
