People, i have had 3 attempts on opening my headlights and its just not happening for me. Ive tried heating the seal with a heat gun, seperating it with screwdrivers, soldering it appart but nothing!! I think i've cut into my hands more then the actual headlight lol. Can't seem to find any threads on this either.
Someone please give me some advice, i need this done asap.........

If it's for E60 headlights, see links below. GL.
Use a Dremel Multimax tool or equivalent.
Just follow the cutting lines as per Umnitza Install PDF.

Thank's for the links guys, but they don't sell that type of tool in th U.K, i've looked everywhere. Can i use a dremel instead? Also have you guys actually cut into the seal or cut along the seal straight into the plastic lense cover?

I'm sure others in the forum that have done this mod will agree with me on this.
