Daston Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Right tried the old hot air gun trick and used a flat pladed screw driver. However all I seem to have done is bend the lip of the casing and not actualy moved the lense! Any one have this problem? If so how do I get it apart without bending the plastic?

Pete Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 They need to be hotter then. Once they're started they come apart OK, it's getting that first bit that's tricky. Some flexing of the plastic is inevitable, don't do it too much or it'll look bad when you re-assemble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobDogg Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Shove it in the oven! Its not as scary as you think! 5mins on 170c should do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geneb Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 mate I screwed 1 pair up because I'm a cluts at DIY, ended up buying another set, tbh it would have been cheaper and less stressfull to swap them out for some mint ones off GZAEROJON.
