yeh that yellow one on d90's something like quadz or something

Yeah that was it. I think he put them in the oven to get them apart.

My brother too his lights apart on his fiesta to "detango" his indicator.

As far as I remember he just used a hair dryer or heat gun to remove the front glass.

Having said that, this is a Ford were talking about so they were probably assembled with pritt stick anyway.

Was thinking of doing my non-cupra ones grey like a Cupra, but I've only got single beam headlights so it might look a little weird.

This what you're thinking of? http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=190377&highlight=black+d90s

EXACTLY! just want to do them baby blue!

kyle'87 · May 19, 2009

I got a spare headlight and tried this but it would not come apart using a heat gun so think the oven route would be needed.

Can be easily done just have to sit and check the seal every 5mins. Just needs alot of patience.

something I plan to do in the future when can get som spare headlights for obvious reasons lol

R 20vt J · May 19, 2009

I think it will look really smart if you do them baby blue mate!

wilz · May 19, 2009

As Kyle said the oven,

Alot of scooby boys do it to de-tango the indicators.
