Hello mud!
Looking for tips on how to disassemble the front amber signal housing for my FJ62. I've removed the assembly and extracted the four screws from the rear of the housing, but the lens doesn't want to release. I'm trying not to force it as it is thirty year old plastic and I'm trying to remove it in one piece. Hoping to create molds from the existing lenses and make some nice clear replacements.

Thanks for any ideas!

Just need to warm it up. It's glued in place so place it on a cookie sheet in an oven at 170* and see if that loosens the glue. Just go up by 5* increments until it releases. I say that because I honestly can't remember how warm I had to get mine, but it wasn't much!

Outstanding, thank you.
