Default What temperature & how long?
I know this has been mentioned before, so please forgive me. (Some people here get ____ed about the same question being asked twice.)

Two Questions:

What temperature works best to disassemble our headlights using the "oven method?"

How long should they be cooked?

Thanks!

I did 250F for 6 mins. Watch it, it burns your hands.
