the glue will never be loose and sloppy, even if you put it in the oven, you will still need to use a butterknife or somethin' to pry it open. The oven is used to soften the glue a little bit so that you can actually pry it open. set the oven to 350F and then turn it off, then you can put the headlights in there with a towel underneath. leave it in for about 15 minutes then take it out and start prying. gl with it.
cheers.
