have you put them in the oven to heat up? also when you try to split them use a heat gun aswell to just heat the glue up that little bit more.

Got all the water out of my headlamps this morning and fixed my alpine component speaker. Had to drill 3 holes in the base of the light and heat up with a hairdryer. Worked a treat
