I was told, and I did a search w/no results that there is a way to take apart the lens from the housing. If any body knows how, please help.

Why is this in the SR section?

The best way to do it is to heat the headlights up in an oven until the glue becomes sticky, and then carefully peel the lens off of the housing.

Be careful though, excess or uneven heat will warp or melt the lens or housing.
