How'd you open the reflectors? Also, how'd you reseal them?

Maybe just heat them up in the oven like headlights. But I would like to know also. I want to paint mine black from the inside.

Its actually a very delicate process, these housing are seal with the plastic lens itself,no glue; you have to heat it up alittle bit and using a small flat head, put pressure...this will cause it to "snap" and the lens comes off, if it comes off in one piece, you got patience...if not ...
To reseal, plain RTV silicon.... clean up with WD40.
