Put it in the owen, with +-80 degrees celcius for 7-10min and it will be aesy to pop apart,
I did it to paint the headlight interior black On kouki levin lights. 280z '75 audi S4 B5 '99 KE25 '71 |

However, I've been using a hair dryer in the garage, quite a bit recently, for heating paint/panels/cold hands etc. I don't think it'll produce enough heat to soften the sealer, though. I'll give it a try, anyway. http://www.AE86imports.0catch.com |

Failing that, you could buy some Raybrigs Steve, that's what I did, so I have my old lenses spare if you need a pair

It's not too bad, needs some TLC at the moment that I can't afford to give due to Christmas bills. She will hopefully get some good treatment in february.
