I have not been able to get the lower lens out. The back of the blinker comes off easy. You might be able to dremel tool the tabs holding it in and somehow mate it to the good chrome. Try removing the blinker lens from the good chrome. See how that works and you might be able to learn about

[MBZ] 115 Headlight trim? How do I separate the plastic from the chrome part?

Is there a way to remove the plastic from the chrome? My car has good chrome but a badly cracked plastic part on the passenger side. I bought a pair of these on ebay but unfortunately, the chrome is not as good as those that I already have. There is a fair amount of pitting on the top of the

Randy, Any way you can post pictures? I had a 114 that I replaced headlight trim on (I think) but I don't recall the details. If I could see one I know I would remember. Dan On Mar 26, 2013, at 11:48 AM, Randy Bennell rbenn...@bennell.ca wrote: Is there a way to remove the plastic from the

Re: [MBZ] 115 Headlight trim? How do I separate the plastic from the chrome part?

1. I will put them on photobucket and add a link. 2. The plastic part is relatively loose. I can wiggle it a bit. I just don't know if it is intended to be removable or if it is not. If it is, there must be some trick to it. It there is not, then I need to figure out how to do it without
