there´s no crap. It´s very easy. With a little heat from a hairdryer, you can pick up the reflectors. After polishing the shine will be excellent. e.g with WD-40.

I did it without a hairdryer. And there are no scratches.
But be carefull. After removing, there is a lot of crap. But you can remove that with WD-40. But its a lot of polishing work ...

But it´s worth :-)
