you can seperate the glass cos i dit it with my old saxo and painted the bits that werent the reflectors black. but cant remember for the life of me how i managed it

. but think it took a lot of gentle persuasion so i didnt crack the lense and sealed it back up with silicon or some black bonding stuff like tiger seal but cant remember wich one.

sorry cant be a bit more helpful but it can be done. just do it slowly

just to let you all know. you put the lights in the oven for
15 minutes at gas mark8/450 degrees. works a treat
