Headlights

How do get rid of the amber corner on the headlights so it is all clear?

talk to . He'll help, he's the king at clearing lights. but basically, you put the headlights in the oven, heat them up so the adhesive is soft enough to pry apart, take the amber lens out and then seal it back up with silicone, make sure it's totally sealed. And then put the lights back on.

I do not fully agree with those directions ... i would not do step 13 "You will need a fairly small size phillips, a size perfect enough to fit in the "channel" to clean out the stock glue. " Personally, I left the glue in mine so when i'm ready to reassemble i just throw the lights back in the oven to soften the glue for a few minutes, pull them out and squeze them back together. That way I don't need to put silicone around the lights ... 8 weeks later with heavy rains and still no fogging.

Those clamps are a good idea though ... would have made it easier for me if I used them.
