Headlight assembly disasembly

[fasterski]

I mean the light bulbs broke into pieces while still mounted in the head light. I have cleaned out all the debris I could by removing the assembly out of the bike and shaking the broken pieces of glass out. Reinstalled new bulbs and now I have this weird aligmtn issue.

I'm wondering if I can take the assembly apart (Looks like there are 2 tabs on the top and 1 on each side, those look like can be easily opened. The 3 on the bottom do not look so easy to open. ) Has anyone done this or is this asking for trouble as the assembly is not supposed to be split in two?

Thanks in advance.

I removed the front cover on mine years ago to clean the inside. One of my caps on the back had fallen off and it had got damp and dirty inside. I used a heat gun to heat it up and pulled it off. Same to put it back on. It has black adhesive inside it.

Are the bulbs aligned properly ( tab on the H7 bulb in the 7 o'clock position)?

The debris must have been left inside the magnifying glass. It doesn't matter if you try to remove the transparent plastic...it is with glue

Glue…..
