Hi, i was wondering if i need to place the headlights in the oven to soften them before taking the lens off? Or are they clipped on?

I fancy spraying the inner plastics black

Thanks smile.gif

Fair warning unless you have projectors, you won't be able to see much at night... Lol if you still want to spray it, pick up LED 9005 projector bulbs and it won't be too bad

I dont think he's talking about the chrome parts. There's a grey piece in all of them which I painted black and it looks quite nice
