Yeah. I was going to seperate the lense from the plastic and paint the housing but I was unable to get them Sparta.
It sat in the oven on 340 for about 6 minutes.

No I couldn't get them apart.
I read a tutorial somehwere of someone sticking their Versa lights in the oven but I can't seem to find it so I just look up one for another car and followed those instructions. I didn't want to use a drenel to cut the headlight apart like the other tutorial so I thought I'd give this a try.
It didn't seem to work very much. I left it in there for 6 minutes and it started to melt one of the back pieces so I said screw it and out them back on my car. Maybe letting them sit in a lower temperature for longer would work?
Like 250 or something. I did 350 as the tutorial said that was for a Hyundai or something.

hey i dont know if it is still there but there is a headlight from a versa sedan siting at my work bench at work that i replaced yesterday.
it has a small crack in the lens part thats why it was replaced but you can have it if you pay for shipping to mess around with?
