Cool Burnt Halo in my Headlight

I have (obviously) aftermarket headlights.
and.
One of the halo's has burnt out. In order for me to replace it... if possible... which i'm sure it is.
i would have to open up the headlights completely....
i've never done that before. and i know that it has to be done carefully, especially putting them back together because of moisture and such.

any helpful tips?
or something that i don't know that you do??
thanks!

not sure how they would hold up but i know you can bake your lights and they open pretty easy after that. ive baked my eclipse lights before to clean em, difference being i took my bulbs out,.,. i guess you cant haha..

Good luck

actually, you can take the LED halo lights out, I had the same problem as you, and you dont even have to take the headlight out, I will attach some pics on where the LED's are located. you might have to remove the fender thing and turn the wheel so you can access it, that round plastic cover is what you have to remove, i did it with a flat head screw driver, and it pops right out, just be careful pulling the LED's out. I think they sell the LED's at ebay. Hope this helps
