Just a small update to this thread - I did mine last week, and they came out great!
Just a small note on disassembly - many struggle with this step since the factory used gorilla snot to seal the glass in the plastic housings.
I used a heat gun (with gloves) to heat the glass. My original plan was to soften the adhesive, but the lens quickly shattered with the heat applied. Couple of whacks with a ball hammer and then pulling the shards out with pliers was a lot easier than trying to get the lens out intact. No plastic damaged in the process either. They look brand new - even better, in fact, with no ugly off-white background.
Cheers
Matt
