You have to bake the headlight and then open it up to take the amber pieces out.

Then you have to buy some chrome bulbs for the front as well so that you dont have that amber bulb sitting in a chrome reflector housing.

you can use a good quality heat gun to melt open the housing as well

ya seriously dude its not that difficult i did it with a buddy on his VW and was suprised how simple it was.. even resealing it you can use the original glue and just make sure you get a tight seal and you'll be good
