I was told by my dealer that they are sealed units so cannot be taken apart but they do have a breather on the back(so not that sealed).

The E60 headlights are almost impossible to take apart even with baking. Many have tried to do that to remove the amber reflector on the US spec headlights but have been unsuccessful.
