OEM Headlights
Is there a way to take out the yellow reflector and replace it with a white or clear one in the headlight?

no, he means put them in the oven to melt the seals around the headlight, open up the headlights... and pull out the reflector.... you might as well paint them while they're open too

Re: (waterboy)
its pretty diff, what he meant by oven is you have to stick them in the oven for a certain time at a certain temp which i i dont exactly know, and that heats the silicone which enables you to pull the lense aprt from the house which is difficult but baking them also like smokes the chrome housing in away, its difficult and not worht your time tring to pull apart the headlight and trying to get the headlight to seal properly after you seperate, they will be all foggy

if you know what you are doing you can seal it the right way. Use an oven at the lowest temp to start off. Longest time i would wait is 5 mins.

And instead of painting the housing, just cover up the orange part with clear reflector tape.
