Just hack into it with a dremel! Did it on 5 headlights for my mark, not bad.
lincoln00- That's because I uploaded it like months ago. Sendpace deletes an upload if no one downloads it within a certain amount of time. I can put it up early next week when I get back to my own computer where I have the pdf stored... i think.
I used a 1/8 inch cutoff wheel on a small electric grinder as in pic.
It's quick and makes a nice cut but just be careful not to cut into the bezel when you cut it across the top.
Since you have it apart color paint the bezels.
Use a hot glue gun to spot weld it back together then use PL Premium polyurethane adhesive in a cartridge tube available in the paint section at any Home Depot.
Run a nice bead and use soapy water to smooth it.
Let cure overnight, brushpaint seam black and contact cement the rubber back on.

You used 02V8Sport's PDF?
No, tried getting it when I did mine but no one had it. I even asked ken because he had it but ot anymore.I just did them not knowing how hard it would be but it turned out great.
I took all the pictures in the thread from when I did mine.I cut 7 sets of gen2 headlights, including mine, so I made a video of the last set (Andrizzle's) because I wasn't going to do them anymore.
Keep looking if you really want to use his PDF, but my pictures and a video walk you through it pretty well, well I think so, and I can answer any question you might have.
