I've wondered this myself. They seem to be heat sealed.

Not sure if it's glue or they are melted together.

I've removed light lenses from lights b4 by putting them in the stove. If these are anything like the ones I did, it should work fine. The lenses were held in place with silicon, just be sure to check them often until you feel the silicon softening up. I think a heat gun would be difficult cz all areas of the seal should be warm to pry oof the lense.

Good luck bro

I was watching either Trucks or one of those shows on Spike or speed. The show with the Paint Booth portion to there program. They highlighted a paint you can get from your autopart store for blacking out lenses from the OUTSIDE.

My two cents...
