Glad to hear you got the pieces off though. good luck with the glue, also good luck finding a glue that strong to replace it when you rebuild them. Make sure you do an even bead and take you time, no skimping. Have you seen how horrible it looks when there is moisture under a lens? While you have it taken off and such, it'd be a good idea to get PIAA stealth bulbs. They glow orange when on but are clear when off. That way you don't get a "orange dot in a clear ocean" look going on.

 

there is still alot of glue left in the casing
as far as the bulbs Ill consider that
however there is a 2nd lense
so it might block out the color. so we shall see.
