Removing aftermarket tailights from my ek

[jks24]

Ok stupid me decided it would be could to go and get aftermarket tailights for my ek :thumbdwn:Got them on and they were leaking a bit so i got the guy to seal around the edges. He warned me that once he sealed it they would be hard to get off. Now i hate them and want to put the stockys back on. Any ideas on how i can remove them and somehow break through the sealer??

Thanks guys

why did he seal it for? didnt your tail lights come with a rubber/foamy type gasket?

might need to blade the rubber carefully and once off pull the rubber glue

na they were not a perfect fit so he ran a layer or sealant/silcon around the edge where they meet the body.

just dont get the heatgun too close to the tail lights, it could bubble and melt and probably do some damage to your paint.

yeh i think im goin to try and use a razor blade first. Whats a good way of loosening a stripped wing nut??

[joyride]

use vice grips?

You go to Clark rubber and make DIY gaskets for like $5 for next time

maskingtape/ducttape combo around the headlights so it doesnt mess up the paint.
