I want to take off my clear headlight lens so i can clean the insides and then seal them up completely with silicone. How do i get the clear front lens off of the housing? Thnx
I would just buy some OEM lens and housings...they are $30 bucks a piece from 50resto.com and made my car look a lot better on the front end...and usually the "uncleaniness" of the bulbs (yellow) are on the outside...and it takes a lot of elbow grease to get them to look as good as new...
You can take them apart, but you have to be careful. The two parts are glued together, but you can get a small screwdriver in between the two parts and maybe pry them apart. But the parts might break. I would only do it if it is actually leaking. I had to do one of mine since it was leaking and the metal reflector had come loose and was rattling around in the light. I glued it back together with some clear silicon sealant.
i assume they are leaking otherwise nothing could get in there and dirty them up. I would atleast give it a shot on taking them apart before dropping the money for the new ones. if the outside is oxidized (sp) then ive heard metal polish will take that out.
