Regarding Winjet headlights

If anyone is thinking of doing this to Winjet headlights, you don't have to bake them to get them apart.
Yes you have to remove about 6 perimeter screws and there are the same tabs and hooks, however Winjet uses a molded rubber gasket and not goop to seal the two halves.
Yes heating it makes it more flexible, but I skipped heating the second unit and it came apart without drama in a couple minutes of careful prying.
Putting it back toget was dead easy on both units.
So skip step 17
Also, the high beam solenoid wires are brown/brown (stupid!) and the end connector is different than the Morimoti D2S retrofit projectors. I spliced the Morimoto connector onto the Winjet harness to make it cleaner.

Just a heads up
