Default Help with headlight diffusers?

Hey guys, I purchased some JDM clear diffusers from Rick's but I think I need to request help swapping them out.

I can take the headlights out just fine, but the baking/removal/reassembly might need assistance.

I have only tried once, and well, ended up with upgraded AP2 lights (last car).
I'd be more than happy picking up dinner/lunch/drinks/whatever you want if you help out.

To make it easier, I'd probably try to do the whole job there (rather than brining just the headlights). Not sure I have the facility for this...

Thanks!

stick it in your oven, 350* is good. wear gloves cause its stickey as hell, dont pry it all at once, a little at a time is all is needed.

I've been wanting to get mine done too. But having never done it before (or seen it done), I am a little weary about sticking my headlights in an oven. Everyone tells me that it will be okay, but still.

It will be ok. I promise. I've done it to a set of eclipse headlights. I plan to do it to mine soon to get ''mulderized''.
