About to put in the HID kit with projectors. Curious if i need to remove all of the internal wiring? There are also a few peculiar alan heads on here. Do those come out as well?

Doing a little more research, looks to be 200 degrees for varied duration. Just depends on when the silicone is willing to let go. BUT, the question still remains, do I need to remove the wiring and are those alan heads supposed to be removed?

Remove the wiring. No need to put the wiring through the heat. Its what I always did.
