Ive found a whole bunch of threads about cleaning the outside and what not but I need to clean the inside, there is a fair bit of shit(due to them being sitting for so long with no bulbs/caps) inside and I wanna clean it up.

What works to get the light open? Wack it in the oven for 15mins on 100c? Anyone done this before, let me know!

dont go 100deg for 15 min...you may warp the plastic lens....try for 7-8mins and see if they get loose...if they do get a bit loose and need a bit more try for 2 or 3 more mins at a time. I know thats not the answer your after but I dont want you destroying your lights.

I believe the same method should work for the front lights too. f**king shit, I just polished up one of the lights and when sanding must have got some water in the back and now there is condensation building up. Hope that water was clean or Ill be ripping faces off if I see dried up marks.

With the condensation though, what I would do rather than pull the light apart is blow some air into it with the two light caps off at the back or chuck a hair dryer in the rear. Ill check it out tomorrow. its my other headlight which has a dead bug and other shit in it I need to clean up.

Condensation will only form if the light is not sealed, so if you are running HID's and you modded the back of your caps to suit, seal them up. That shit is f**king annoying.
