headlight reflector
How do you pry the reflector from the two long screws to remove the stock headlight deflector? I'm afraid I may snap something off lol

Thanks

If you warm it up in the oven or with a heat gun for a few min it makes it much easier, then you just PULL it off.

Yes, heat them up and use a flathead to pry it off.
