Has anyone opened up the Gen II Altezzas?

Im trying to fix my red circle reflector lens from my Generation II Altezzas. The reflector fell of of the housing and is rattling inside. It has started to scratch the inside of the housing and the sight is aweful... i need help fixing it? I recently cleared-out my original red and orange lights and just wanted to know... Could i do the same for the Gen II lights?? Could I pop these in the oven for a minute and separate the housing to fix it??? Has anyone done this or know if it would work or have any other advice on this matter, than leave a note... Besides the obvious... get new Gen II's...lol

Thanks
-Alex

I opened up some Gen1 Alturds. They came apart fine, but the heat messed up the chrome backing inside the light housing.

Pretty much if you have chrome black or silver in the housing I would plan on it being messed up from the heat.
