0:01 Bake the headlight. We use a big carton box with a heatgun. We put the headlight on small boxes so the hot air will be blown under the headlight, not only on one side.
0:09 In this case we use a 500W heatgun for 15 minutes.
0:14 Start to pry the headlight. In this case it is perma-sealed, so the seal doesn't really get soft, you will need to cut the sealing with the screw driver.
0:37 After working a couple of minutes the headlight housing cools down, heat it up again for a few minutes.
0:40 Work with patience and not too much force. This headlight took us 20 to 30 minutes to open properly.

2:42 Place the nut to secure the projector.
2:53 Secure the nut using needle nose pliers.

3:42 Put the Butyl in the headlight channel for a proper seal
4:00 Press it down with your fingers

4:30 Press the lens on the housing.
4:33 Heat the headlight again for the sealant to become soft.
4:38 Press the lens back on the housing.
4:46 Gently squeeze the lens on the housing, make sure all the lens clips click back on.
