Some tips for people reading this.
You don't need a screw driver, and in fact using one may bend the black plastic the clear plastic is attached to. If you must use a flat object, consider using a paint scraper or something. It's not necessary to use any tool though. I did my second one with nothing but my heat gun. 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.
