From what I've gathered, the stock headlights don't come apart very easily. I know with aftermarket headlights you can heat them up and pull them apart, but from what I understand the stock ones use a different glue so they are very hard to take apart. I haven't tried to take the stock ones apart, but thats just what I've gathered from searching. I'm wanting to one day make a set of projectors myself using stock or stocklike headlight housings with either TSX or S2000 projectors. I've seen it done and it looks sick.

You can pick up a brand new set of headlights and signals for around $140, thats probally the best way to go. You can buff and clean them up, but new is a lot easier and not that expensive.
