Other Blacked out headlights

Just wondering if the general method for blacking out our headlights.^^^^No preheat^^^^up to 200 degrees.
Could that method be used on other vehicle headlights? Say an 11 Odyssey?

most if not all honda/acura cars have the same sealant material around the lights.

what i always did was for opening the light up, stick in the light WITH PREHEAT and warm it up to 200. once it hit 200, i would let it sit for about 10-12 minutes and try to pull it apart. if its still tough, another 5 minutes and repeat as necessary. make sure to align the light away from the walls and the rack with some foil.

Good luck and props, I'd never have the balls to pull something like that off.
