7th gen housings??
On saturday I took the day off to work on my lights but I had a really hard time separating the housings on my 7th gen. Does anyone have any specific instructions for me? I read on some thread to heat it to 200 degrees and turn it off n leave the lights in for 4 minutes and that I could pry it open, but I heard a little crack in the plastic when I used the flatheads on it so I stopped...ne tips? Thanks...
btw I just got my neuspeeds and konig tantrums put on...pics will b up soon

i heated the oven to 300, shut it off, then popped the housings in for 3 min. if you're not careful, you'll start melting brackets. i used a putty knife to seperate the lens from the housing.
