Taking apart Tail Lights... another suggestion...

LIES! That's a LAZER GUN!

 

lol......fire the laser.......hahaha

 

a heat gun wouldnt work on the tails cause the glue is different than the head lights. i think someone said its like superglue. someone tried baking them and they were almost destroyed

 

damn if we only had lightsabers..

 

Mini Me stop humping the laser!!

 

yeah that was vik but he tried it once at a low temp with no avail and then he like doubled the temperature, maybe if someone tried more gradually

 

u first, im gun be workin on my headlights soon tho

 

i contemplated just cutting them open and siliconing them back up lol

 

everyone has their idea...i am definitely sticking with mine...i know i messed up before, but is all about trial and error...like they say, "try & try untill you suceed...

so if you have an idea...dont be afraid to try em out...

 

i think the heat gun will work.our cars are new and the glue is at its peak.ive baked tails on my old 95 mirage for about 10 minutes at 350 and got got them apart.maybe cause of age??we need a tester

 

i work at a hospital so bear with me. what if you could draw the mineral terpintine up in a syringe. then lay a bead down directly on the contact area of the glue, this way there wouldnt be any soaking of the whole housing. and gravity would help.

 

yes the principal is still the same its just direct placement in place of "soaking". i guess its a modified vesion

 

you should try and let us know the outcome...maybe your result will be better than any of us thought off...especially me...

 

WOAH


ok, glad I saw this thread.

Guys, I took a 5 second peak at the taillights and I recognized them as plastic welding which means you have to CUT thru!!

They are not silicone such as headlights or older gen taillights.

I will verify again today but it looked like traditional plastic welding.
