Default '96 Accord EX Taillights

I'm trying to get the amber reflector out of my taillight. I can't seem to figure out a way to get it out without opening the entire housing. Anyone know of a way to do this?

Well what I did, if you take your tail-lights out, and take the bulb out where the orange piece resides. Try breaking that piece up, its a pain in the rear to do. I myself took a hot screw driver and melted it into pieces and then pulled it out with a pair of plyers. Not the best method, the socket hole for the light is all messed up.... do a search, there are bound to be other methods of doing this as well.

Wow...I found a site that tells how to do it with a heat gun. But you still have to seperate the housing. Oh well. Thanks anyway.
