ive done several civic headlights. best way to do it is put them in the oven at 200 degrees for 3-4 mins. that gets the glue good and soft so you can pull them apart.

There are a couple of places that sell them for $200-$230 shipped, I'll hunt the websites down again. I'll be getting me a set soon, don't think my g/f like me having car parts in the oven.
