Default Do 7th Gen Headlights come apart . .

. . easy, or am I hosed?

The little metal reflector/deflector came off and is loose inside the light housing.



I see some clips around the perimeter of the assembly, do the clear & black parts separate without cutting glue joints?

thanks

You are hosed... Sorry man. It took me about two hours per lens to get mine apart. Good luck.

My friend at work had the same issue and he fixed it, but I'm not sure how? I'll ask him tomorrow about how he fixed his.

I've seen a few that have been taken apart through forums. So it can be done, but wouldn't you prefer a new set anyways... DEPOT!
