Default Help, headlights

Hi,

I'm posting here as in a pickle.
Classic headlights. I need to remove the headlight glass from the body as the ball adjuster has come away internally. I've removed the 4 medal clips holding the glass to the plastic body but they won't separate....

Any ideas

Cheers
Hakon

Stick it in the oven, 100deg c for about 10min, this will soften the glue, then the glass can be removed( with the metal clips off).
While your at it, try this!https://www.scoobynet.com/members-ga...eadlights.html

Put it in the oven at 80c, then pulled apart.
Got the ball adjusters in and all working.
