I'm looking to paint and de tango my lights.
Does anyone have a walk through on how to do it and how hard is it to remove the lights does the bumper have to come off to get them out?

the bumper doesnt need to come off but i found it easier.

take the lights out and remover the rubber backs and bulbs

place in the center of the oven at about 115deg and leave them for about 5-10 mins (keep checking them)

the glue will loosen and then carefully take them out and begin to prise the lense of the back.

place the lense to one side and pull out the chrome part and pant and remove the orange lense.

once its dried put them back together and place back in the oven as the glue heats back up you can push it back together

once cooled place back on the car
