But now I ask what is the best method for removing my old lenses? Can I put them on a cookie sheet? Or would that melt the original housing? I guess what I am asking is what is best used to place objects of your car (Turn Signals. Projectors, etc..) to be sat upon in the oven?

-preheat oven to 250
-bake on a cookie sheet for about 10mins (one lens/housing at a time) -then carefully pry the old lens off *if the lens doen't wanna come off, stick it back in the oven *kinda play around with the bake times -------------------- I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
