Sea Foam and Microfilter

Slapped this together the other day and didn't have any issues. Figured it may help others who are more visual learners like myself.

Dealership wanted $600 for the carbon flush and $85 for the filter - able to take car of it for only $24.

Any chance someone knows how to pull apart the headlight housing unit? Mine took a tumble because someone didn't place it on the ground and now a plastic piece is broken (the top light just rolls around now). I heard of others using hairdryer to melt the sealant and pry it off. Tips?

I know a lot of people heat their headlight in an oven to help melt the glue but a hair dryer or a heat gun should work
