I came across a site that had notes about removing lenses. The method is to place the assemblies in and oven pre-heated to 200 degrees for 20 minutes and pry them apart. If not free then heat longer. I heated mine for 30 minutes and viola! the lens separated from the case, I spent many hours cleaning up the old silicone and now have one good set of headlights and a set with lousy lenses. I am pressing on with VISA to see if I can recover half of my $$ as I could have sold the original set for $450. I have the lenses if you are interested. I tried Miguiar's plastic cleaner and it worked on the minor scratches but the gouges are going to take some serious work. There is also an area that looks like a liquid splash that left an area that the Miguiar's did not touch. Maybe UV protection layer?
