Default need help opening headlights...

Hey guys, i just made a purchase of some DENJI headlights and i need to fix them up a lil bit. I want to open them so that i can fix the inside part. it appears that some stuff inside are loose and i wanna put them back in place. also wanna clean inside kuz there is some dust and lil bit of dirty as well. I know there is a way to put them in the oven, heat it up and then pry it off. not sure how to do this tho. could you give me some advises. who can help out

I usually bake my headlights for about 15-20 minutes at 200 degrees with the door open. I stick wooden chopsticks (any asian household should be well-equipped!) under the headlight to make sure that it's not directly contacting any of the oven racks.

But before you do this make sure that you've removed anything that can melt.
