Front Headlight Help
Howdy, need a little advice here.
I noticed the inside of my headlight covers are a little dirty and I want to remove clean and replace.
I know about getting to the headlight assembly in the rear through the wheel well covers.
But onced opened, can I remove the plastic sheild and clean or do I remove the entire assembly and clean without removing the sheild?
Anyone ever do this?
Thanks.

Headlight assembly is a single unit. The front lens cannot be removed (unless you are willing to try heating it in an oven to release the 'glue' holding the lens cover in place). It can be done, but are you willing to risk $800 to replace one?

I wouln't bother w/ the inside of the headlights!
just clean the front and it should be fine.
If your driving your vette ,it's bound to get dirty,chipped,etc!
there's no way to keep it without flaws!just do your best!
