I pulled my first gens apart to do the CCFL mod as well a couple years back, just follow the oven directions for the stockers. Also don't forget to pull the 3? screws in the back before you bake em.
I resealed with windshield sealant, holds and seals like a **** but if the time comes to separate you just pull and it comes apart. Also might want to put a pair of OEM lenses on while you're at it, the ones that came on mine were peeling.
