I did mine like this. I heated the oven to 200 degrees and then turned it off and wrapped the housings in aluminum foil and left them in there for 5 minutes. Then I pulled them out and used a screwdriver to seperate the lens.

I heated the oven to 350 for 10 minutes, turned it off, then stuck the lights in for 5 minutes

Dont forget to clean the inside of the lenses before you put them back together

I didnt and it looks all fuzzy inside
