Ok you broke it but you never said why were trying to open it. I think you need to put them in the oven to get them to come apart easy like the headlights.

I totally agree. Were you trying to take them apart to black it out?

All of this was done for research. So far, i've leaned that fogs are not that easy to open. As soon as i began prying it open the glue started getting hard so i baked it again.
Good thing is that this was a spare fog light so no worries.
I think im gonna try the headlight next time.

At What temperature did you bake these? 500*? They shouldn't have burned at 200-250.
