When yopu did your head lights how do you get them apart? just pull really hard?

I baked them in the oven for about 5-10 mins at a time and used old knife edge to pry them apart (messy). I believe the temp was about 200 degrees. I know it was no more than 250. I resealed them with RTV silicone and rebaked them and applied pressure to get them reseal.

Can you be more specific abput how did u reseal them?

Once they're apart and painted and ready to be resealed, line the edge with rtv silicone and press them back together. Then put them in the oven at 200 degrees for 5-10 mins at a time (it's hot). Pull them out and press them together making sure that the snaps (on the tops and bottom of the housings are latched. Let them cool. If they do not seam sealed place them back in the oven and repeat the pressing and cooling process.
