Has anyone been able to open the Vland Headlights? Which temperature do you use for baking?
It seems that more heat is needed as for the OEM ones...

Any help is apreciated.

Kind regards from Switzerland

I have not tried opening these headlights. I have done several of OEM headlights of different cars.

What are you using? I typically use around 200F/100C. You might need to try to pry them apart in the beginning then put them back in for five minutes and try again then do it again. Maybe have someone help with a dryer or heat gun (on low), while you pry, and just make sure there are no retaining screws.

The thickness of the plastics are probably cheaper than OEM, so just be careful prying.
