Depends on how they were fixed in the first place.  If using a silicone sealer or somesuch you should be able to prise them off.

New ones can be had on eBay

the ones that i had contained a tigerseal type fixant, not something i wanted to put on mine as it would be murder to get off.....

I went out and bought some clear silicone sealant, has done the job and i know i will be able to remove with little/no issue  :y

What colour was the sealant you put on in the first place

The eBay ones: some are in the UK, some Poland (I think).

Sounds like you are going to have to experiment ( very carefully) with solvents.

Why do you want these off and looking for new ones, might I ask ??

Ah, right ---- wasn't being nosey (much) -- just curious as to whether there was another way to approach the problem, depending on what you were intending!

Assuming the old units are expendable I would try solvents, remembering that they might mark the eyebrows too.

My experience - not that I would ever have them on any car of mine - is they make a right mess of the headlights.

If you must have them, buy new ones...
