YES, you can use hair dryer. Somebody suggested using oven too which I think good idea.

Hmm...using an oven would be the best if it worked. I've heard people talk about using it, but they never mentioned what temp. setting or for how long. I was afraid that the plastic would melt from being in an oven.

Plan on about 4 hours to do your lights. You don't want to rush something like that.

heat guns are not expensive. You could get one for around $15-$25. You will be a lot better with a heat gun.

I started heating at the pointy end of the housing, then wedged flat-heads along the entire side. Then heat the opposite side for a few minutes, and pry the two pieces apart slowly in one motion.

I just finished my headlights an hour ago. I recommend you use a HEAT GUN because a hair dryer is not as efficient. Heat guns you can adjust the temperature so it is better to use this to melt the silicone. ( Theres a whole grip of silicone )
