I did it once but it was a long time ago. I believe you have to break it but I'm not sure. Just tape it off and do it. Easier then actually trying to pull it apart.

Sounds good. Andysautosport used to sell the fogs with the projector tinted black, I think they still have them. 40$ a light.

Iirc a flat head screwdriver and some patience will get it apart... i think it is spring loaded into the levelling mechanism so you have to be patient and remember how it goes together... there might be a couple plastic screws in there too... as sleepy it's been a while since i did this... didn't break it though... i remember that much cuz i was going to sell them to mike the canadian for his malibu!!

Good luck finding one that isn't cracked and will take in water quickly.
