Not sure if it can be done or not. Don't put them in the oven. I would try boiling water, in a basin and sit the lights in and try to prise them apart. Might take a few loads of boiling water but they should come.

I was able to split Valeo headlights with boiling water and I'm sure the glue won't be as tough on Lexus lights
