headlight help
my headlight has some condensation in it and was wondering if anyone know the steps to take apart the headlights and reseal. I have a heat gun so I don't need to put it in the oven. I have HIDs. I once saw a thread but can't seem to find it. While I'm in there I'm thinking about painting the housing black and clear the turn signals too.

hmm. Im interested on how to do this, i took apart my QX4 headlight once with a heat gun it took forever! Im not sure if its the same way to do the GS headlight so i don't wanna give you bad info, (these headlights cost rediculous money to replace especially the HID ones) this is a phone number of a company Advanced Automotive Concepts that can do it for you 1(800)407-5776. They quoted me $149 to take them apart and paint the housing any color i wanted. They also sell the Angel Eyes for the GS.
Your best bet is to put them in the oven to save time. Set the oven to 400 degrees for about 20-30 minutes then shut the oven off and put the headlights in for about 20 minutes. Make sure the oven is off, you will only be using the pre-existing heat to melt the glue. I know Jefftsai has a writeup on his DIY page.
