If you start at the very top of the head light, where the long plastic piece juts out for bolting down. You can heat that part up with your gun and eventually pop the top off, which breaks the seal. From there you gradually heat both sides and just sort of peel the clear part off slowly. This protects the shape of the bottom piece it's attached to and doesn't damage your headlights at all. Hope this helps someone.
No tools, heat and hands only!!
