Default heat gun

I need to clear the driver's side headlight.
How much can I get a heat gun for?

You're going to clear a corner with a heat gun? I always throught it was easier to use an oven on "Bake"

Heat guns are anywhere from $20 to $50.

I found a decent one online.
I feel safer using a heat gun rather than baking it in the oven.

I can understand that - normally opening a headlight requires equal heat for X amount of time - just don't see how one can achieve that with a heat gun.

More power to you if you can - if you do, tell us about it.

Bake it

it has been done over and over again on this forum with no deaths.

Seriously do a quick search and find the play by play on it and follow those directions
