Honestly, do you really have to bump three threads about the same thing?

Reason seem to make me think if you could freeze it some way(I know, it sounds crazy..JUST A THEORY) it would just crack off

You mean like when you get gum in your hair you use ice to freeze it and then it should fall right out????

I don;t think that works too well

Good luck with the rest of it. There is zero room for error when working with the glue and the headlights, I found out the hard way as well. Get the pics up when you have a chance.
