Default Help - installing halos, need tips on opening headlamp

I'm in the process of installing the ORACLE halo kit and am at the step of removing the headlamp lens cover. I have placed the assembly in the oven according to the instructions with no success. It seems that I would cause more damage to the assembly if I continue doing what I'm doing. Is there a better way to do this without damaging the headlight assembly?

According to others that have done this in the past, the best way on these lenses is to cut the lenses off with a dremel and then epoxy the lenses back on. The oven heating method does not seem to work on these.

Do a search for "angel eyes", and you will come up with information on how others have done it.
