Ok, I just removed my headlights. A friend of mine that has a Tacoma has done this. I just got off the phone with him. He says he preheated his oven to 275, put in the headlight, then shut off the oven. He left it in for 9 minutes. Do we have to do the same? I searched around but didn't see anything that says this. He says if I leave the oven on, I'll melt the headlight. Please advise.

do you have a gas oven or electric oven? electric ovens have terrible heat distribution. either way, ovens are designed to keep heat. i turned it off after i put my lights in. its ok if its not hot enough, because you can heat it some more if it doesn't come apart. but if you do it too much....well, i dont have to explain the level of a sadness a melted headlight will bring upon you.
Thanks. I have gas. And my oven is gas. Oven is ready. time to bake...

only question i have is, with taking the headlight apart and using new adhesive wouldnt this increase my chances of getting that nasty condensation look some headlights get? or would i get that ****ty looking old yellow look on the lense?
