Hi I am new to this forum and I hope someone can help. I have an 07 Tahoe that I wanted to remove the reflector from the inside. I tried to bake them at 200 for about 25 minutes but they did not come apart. I did this on a Lexus GS 400 HID system and I did it two ways. One way was to cut out the lens and then epoxy it together and then silicone it. The opther way was the oven. I've seen a number of threads on here where people have done this to Yukons but I haven't seen it done on a Tahoe yet. Can anyone help?

The Tahoe's can not be baked apart. The adhesive they use is a really high temp adhesive the will not soften up like the Yukons. Your best bet is to cut them open and epoxy them back together.

Good Luck!!!

Yeah I try to bake mine time after time and they would not budge much at all. I ended up cutting them open. Check out Excons Tahoe I sold the lights to him and regret doing it!
