How easy is it to masked your head lights?
Iv heard different things and seen some proper messed up ones? is there a thread on how to do a decent job?

It is very easy to get wrong and melt your plastic light
You need to melt the glue by either heat gun or put it in the oven then seperate

would the heat gun be the easiest?

Someone I know used a hot air gun on the low setting and managed his just fine.......I'm planning on doing a set the same way.
The oven trick works but I don't fancy it........the wife wouldn't be too happy to see a headlight in her brand new oven lol

Id recomend an oven, i v done 5 sets now and a heat gun is a right lash up way of doing them, you end up with prie marks all over the place bits snapped off and missing , holes where there shouldnt b holes. so yeah it you want a tidy job use an oven, nice neat tidy job, quicker to do , and 99% less damage to the head light
