they're sealed. the time it would take to open and reseal and you probably wont completely seal them back so the problem would be even worse just buy new ones they're cheap

they're not too cheap for the 06+ Zs...about $30 a piece

i'll probably just try holding a hair dryer up to it.

Just use a thin screwdriver, place right at the edge, where the top plastic piece touches the bottom piece and just pry open. You may have to slightly twist the edge of the screwdriver side to side, but this should break the seal. Just follow all around. I used the same method to open my stock 08 front reflectors.

i'll give it a shot man. found out it's got a small crack that let the water in, so i'll have to get something to seal it.
