Could a heat gun work or a hair dryer? We did the hair dryer on my friends miata and it seemed to work. Loosened it up enough to get a putty knife in there

Maybe a heat gun if you were really patient with it. The problem is that its such a big headlight, you really have to get a big enough area heated to even get it started and most of the edges of the lens are covered by the housing. It'd be tough to get a putty knife in there without breaking the housing.

      By KARNUT · Posted

      About the only GM that compares well with its competitors through the small to midsize vehicles is the Trax. I would like nothing better to just drive GMs. My wife in a Cadillac me in a Chevy minivan and Colorado. Part of my day is comprised of reading and watching comparisons of automobile. I could buy a car today. I’m back to research the next.
