    Thank you for support. The use of hot glue here is minimal, and I use the one with higher melting point so sun heat is not an issue...

    valeo 1k6 945 093 G is a taillight with this code, if you have a headlight, the possibility of breaking the lens is extremely high, I did not see any problems with hella etc. other brands, valeo manufactures this headlight by making molds, it is necessary to break it in order to disassemble it, I will upload a video about it to my channel.
