Hrmm I know that my headlights were ap1 but is there that much of a difference between ap1 and ap2 headlights as far as taking them apart?
I did my 99 si headlights in the oven, and had great luck.

These seem difficult for some odd reason..maybe it's me being a pu$$y though, lol.

Oven, 250 degrees, let it warm up.
10 mins

Very little prying, pulled right apart.

I put the oven @like 300+ for 15 minutes @ first, then start prying and if it gets too tough, throw it back in, my oven was old and ghetto though

Put them back together a while ago..it's all done.

Once they are in the car, I'll take pics...might be tonight/tomorrow depending how it all goes...have to work on the bumper..piping is hitting it some..so I'll work on that..

Here are the pics.

Ok, here is what I've been doing. I've wanted to ditch the orange in the headlights forever..and I finally got around to it..what a job..will never do again. Started on them yesterday after work, and worked until 10'ish, and then from 11-9 today...i took a lunch and dinner break..

Before's







After's









I really like it personally, doesn't clash anymore w/the red lip.

I went from a single white bulb, to 8 LED's.
