    Need help- replacing high beam lens

    Hey folks. So the sealant on the low beams let go so thought id do some custom black hellas. But the highbeams are on quite tight. Got any tips to help me remove them?

    Cheers

    I've had good luck with an X-acto knife; just shove the blade carefully between the edge of the lens and the housing, and slice the glue until the lens pops off. Then remove the rest of the glue with a small chisel.

    And by the way, anyone has had any luck finding replacement lenses for non-projector low beams?
