Default [Q] Tail Light Rebuild?

Hi Everyone,

Recently I had a nasty bump when backing up in a dark ally T_T

I want to use this broken tail light and try my hand at building my own LED tail light conversion.
Any tips on how best to part the layers of plastic apart without causing more damages to each section?

Thanks in advance!!

There is a thread describing this pretty well in the stickied threads. Basically just remove the screws, put it in the oven until adhesive loosens, and pry the parts apart. Cleaning up the old adhesive is a beyotch however, takes lots of patience which I ran out of and just robbed a tail light off my parts car.
