Actually, a tuning shop in my country did this for me! But, I can tell you some of the
procedures. First, he removed all screws which were around the headlight. Then he used a heat gun instead of an oven. The heat gun was heated around 300°C to 450°C. He heated around the area where the glass and the headlight black housing rest. The black plastic start to loosen then he used a screwdriver to remove the glue and the black plastic part. You need to have patience because the headlight is seal very tightly. Caution is needed as the plastic may also start to melt. Then he placed the projector and seal the headlight using Industrial silicone glue. |
