    Anyone know how to take off DC5 lense?

    Hi guys,

    Just wanted to know if anyone knew how to take apart the the lense off the light on a dc5 (not type s). Need to take it off to clean the inside and re-seal it.
    Have a read of my build thread

    Bake it in a oven low temp till the glue melts, lifts all the tabs on the casing and seperate. Then you'll have to apply new glue/sealant or heat up again and join back together using old glue

      but if its not sealed properly your headlights will get water in them and will fog up from the inside

        Pre heat oven at 200 degree
        Remove all metal clips and rubbers on headlights
        Leave headlights in oven for 7-8mins and keep an eye on.it every so often
        Pry the headlights open with tiny screw driver

        And to re seal
        You won't have problem.with fogging as long as you re use the glue or apply added butyl sealant like this http://www.google.com.au/search?tbm=...20&bih=533#i=4
