AFAIK, you can't split thelight units.

I'm not sure from your post above what exactly you want to do, and why.

The drivers side has loads of swarf plastic bits in between the unit and lense so looks rubbish

Where are they from?

TBH, you can't split them, try removing and upending it and shaking them out?

He's got them removed as not actually fitted them yet. He's blown them, sucked them, washed them out But these small shards of plastic won't come out

It's where the previous owner has drilled them to accommodate the fog light
