Hi people.

Just wondering how you remove the headlamp covers from a corsa????

I dont have any clips. Looks like its glues on with very strong glue.


I want to paint the inner plastic black (to achieve a tinted look)

HELP!!!!


cheers

Well, dont quote me on this but I once followed a guide on how to fit angeleye headlights and it said to put them into the oven on a low heat for a few mins until the glue softens, then just gently prise them apart.
Worked for me but I don\'t want responsibility if it don\'t work for you.

what sort of temperature 100 degrees ???? ??????

maybe a hair dryer would work?

I really can\'t remember but obviously the lower the safer.
I think it may have been gas mark 3 or 4 or summin, but don\'t leave them in for long.

LOL. tried hair dryer and paint stripper. Still no joy

will try oven for a few mins

are they ya tinted ones on in ya pic.??

did it pass mot??

Yeah they\'re tinted but they\'re factory made and e-marked so had no probs with the mot.
