Default tour Pack Light Sealant Removal

Like the title says.

Whats the best way to remove the sealant from the tour pack plastic light bar. The one that runs accross the back of the tour pack.

Thanks

I asked the same question about a year ago, the only answer I got was to cut or dig it out. I used a utility knife and screwdriver to get mine out. It took about 1.5 hours. Have fun, thats some tough sealant.

I've done this twice to two different Ultra tour paks and a hair dryer helps a lot to loosen the silicone HD uses to seal the light sockets inside the tour pak. The heat made a huge difference. I used a hair dryer since it's not as tricky to use as a heat gun. Wear gloves 'cause the hair dryer will heat the silicone enough to make bare fingers hurt when you pull the pieces off; use a putty knife and flat blade screw driver or equivalent to score and scrape the silicone.
