Default I think I may try my hand at clear corners this weekend
I am a bit scared but everyone here has great details on how to do it...so if I just take my time I don't think I will run into trouble. for the "hair dryer" method...is there not glue at the bottom of the headlamp that you need to be concerned about?

Thanks,

On my wife's car I did the 3 screws, and used the oven at 200F to soften the glue. Perfect.
