Basically as titled,

I know there's a few makes/brands of corsa B headlights, but which ones are the easiest to split as I've heard a few mixed reviews.

Thanks

Been a while but from what i can remember, Put in oven on a low heat so the sealant softens then prize open gently. Spray innards black then seal back together. Or you could of course save all that hassle and buy smoked depos

Put in the oven on full heat(I did) and then keep checking the sealant keep prising till it opens

Take it your making a cold air feed taking glass off hole in middle straight to filter?
