Assuming you have a fan forced oven... try 1 minute first, then 2 or 3. If its too short you can pop it back in. If you leave it too long then you are screwed, so better to do short bursts

E.g. 5 minutes is TOO long... i kinda found that out the hard way

always wondered what temperature you set the oven at?

or are we talking about microwaves?






and i think this should be moved to exterior.

noooo... Not a microwave!!

I gotta remember, but i think it was 180 degrees celsius... I actually looked on the net for tips on what temp.

At 1 minute it doesnt really matter cos the light is till only warm to the touch

Try a heat gun. ;)
Worked great for me , just take your time ......is this for G50?
If it is , make sure you brake 4-6 tabs on top/bottoms of housing .....otherwise you will crack your lense.

Hope this helps.

its for y33 actually

i dont have access to a heat gun so i think ill just slowly try to warm it up in a standard cooking oven
