removing lenses from rear lights

**Gordon Livsey** · 25-05-2008, 19:17

im in the process of making up a new set of spanish rear lights for the nova, ive already got a twin reverse set of lights but the surround on them aint the best.

planning on removing the good lenses from the twin reverse lights and fitting them to a better frame fromthe standard rear lights

how do i actually get the rear lenses off without breaking them as ive tried heating them up with a heat gun but it aint softened the glue that holds the lenses on to the framework of the rear lights

i know alot of people use the clear lenses and spray the other half red

yea you can get a red tinting spray, maybe an easier option

He doesn't wanted tinted lenses, he wants to swap the frame surrounds!

Basically a heat gun/wack them in the oven.
I managed remove the lense from mine and fit them to a set of clears.
