Angry Problem removing headlight housing

Apparently I'm still wondering how ya'll remove the housing from the headlight. I melt the crud out of those adhesives with a heat gun and still can't get it to come apart. I'm thinking of buying a shank and pry it open but before I do that, is there any other way to separate the two?
