Wait no that's the bottom of the light. Hmm I dunno.

Here's what I remember.

-The HID bulbs are attached to the ballasts which you can completely disconnect. Be very careful extracting the HID bulbs and whatever you do, don't touch them with your bare hands. Don't touch the bulb part at all if you can help it. The bulbs should come right out with the ballasts (which you can then disconnect)

-The blinker bulbs come completely out attached to their harness which unplugs from the assembly.

-Be super careful with the little hatched/conical shiny reflectors that surround the parking bulbs. They look like plastic but they're not. They're ceramic and easily damaged.

I'm pretty sure that's everything you need to remove prior to baking.
