Mistakes were made.
 
Upon baking my headlights, I took them out to pull them apart.
Was leaning them vertically and felt the headlights slide down a big. Checked and uh

LOL, it's okay though. I ended up carving out the melted piece and was still able to place the metal thing so it can be screwed back onto the car.
But yeah, warning to those baking their headlights to open, the plastic will be soft enough to mend..
