I dont know if this would help but give it a try. Scroll down to the head light part. http://dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99973

You have to get a socket between your bumber and your lights. Or you can just cut it with a hack saw, thats what i did.

There's a pita bolt underneath the headlight housing. You'll need an extension and maybe a swivel. Edit>> The guys' links above are what I used.

Yeah, heating it in the oven is supposed to separate the pieces. I haven't ever done it, but guys have had success with that on tuners.

i used a heat gun to get it apart. and yea a long extention and a swivel and alot of patients. i cleaned mine with rubbing compound, its gritty and it took all the yellow off and made them look brand new

I also cleaned mine with rubbing compund as someone on this forum suggested to me(don't remember who). It worked amazing, made my light look brand new and much more bright. Try this method before taking out your headlights.

i just got new headlights, lol. yea that one screw between the bumper and headlight is a bitch, good luck.

if it's haze on the outside just use 3M machine glaze compound and buff the outsides with a buffer. i'm pretty sure it's just oxidizing on the outside but IF it is on the inside, then take them apart but try the buffing thing first.
