My headlight barely fit in my oven, did one in the oven (on a baking sheet with a wet towel) the other I used a hairdryer.
Hair dryer? So a heat gun would work then right?

Yup, but this way no need to remove any connections or wiring...heat gun faster for sure, just more chance of warping something if not paying attention.

and +1 on Automotive Touch Up, amazing OEM paint in a spray can
