Throw headlight into oven until gooey sealant is warm enough, make sure all screws are taken off headlight, pull apart, paint, put back together...

I used high temp engine paint and it worked fine. I think that is what most people use.

maybe sand the areas before painting to make the paint stick on a bit better.. use the finest grit, itll work better...

It's 35 mins in the oven at 250 degrees. Wrap the light in a damp towel and place on a cookie sheet with the plastic lens down.

The housing will open up with very little force.
