Put the whole light in hot water, not boiling, just hot and this will soften the glue and plastic. Then just prise (sp) them apart.

That looks nice mate
You cant buy black depo's no more as the company dont make them no more, Have to keep your eyes peeled on here or eBay for 2nd hand ones ,
Iv seen them sell for about £100 pound aswell

Nice base there. What smoked rear lights you get? Irmscher ones?
And what coloured bulbs for? Few places sell them tho. Maplins? (online store too) Google search pulls up a few
