LOL, no, sorry I don't. I swore I wouldn't do this anymore, but you can always send them to me and I will clear them. Just found simpler way to do it.

Bdimc...I wasn't going to do it anymore, but I found a new technique that works well and makes life much easier for me. I will do them for $150 a pair.

What exactly did you do?

I still see a heat gun, but a lot of vice grips...

Just have a different tool that takes the lense apart very easily...much easier than a heat gun with a screw driver blade! Still use the heat gun of course, just can get all the way under there and pop it open quickly!

Dude, that post is from Feb 26th

That picture is the exact same way I cleared mine. I went and bought those clamps just to do the lights.

What type of tool do you use to pry them open? I need to open my Accord housing for a "project" that I am doing
