200 degrees for 8 minutes. Pull them out start to pry them apart then pop them back in for another 4-5 and keep going.
Only easier way I can think of would be to get a heat gun (REAL heat gun not a blow dryer set on high), and heat up the glue stuff.

I did 250 for 5 minutes, you get the idea. I just kept checking on them until the glue got soft

I did 350 or so but just check on them as stated above!
Also be careful not to break the glass be sure to remove the metal clips also the plastic on the headlight is going to be soft so be sure not to bend the brackets!

Re: (speedhawaii)
Hey , the corners are alittle more difficult but it's the same way as the headlights...The reason is that the corner lights lences are made of plastic and the edges are hard to pry open with out cracking the lence. also another tip is use some silicone around the edges, just incase so no moister gets in..... P.S Why you close your shop at the Queen Kaahumanu Mall in Maui ?
