be careful though. i split open some altezzas and the plastic started to melt. i did them the same way, same heat as my factory headlights. just something to look out for. try using less heat.

I was never able to get my altezzas open. They started to melt and there are plastic clips that hold the two pieces together. The silicon is not the only obstacle when opening these up.
