Can I "Bake" SPOILER light assembly.? (4th Gen)

This is an aftermarket spoiler light. Thought I can bake it to melt the sealant and take apart the cover. Has anyone tried baking this type of light assembly? like those type of aftermarket tail lighting or marker lights.
I know it can possibly melt, but I just want to have an idea.. like what temp( I will not blame you incase ha!ha!). Or can someone recommend a chemical that can dissolve the glue/sealant?

I need to replace three LEDS. Should baking also melt the remaining good units of LEDs, I'll replace the whole LED PCB with brighter LED strips.
Thanks.

Lol! I will answer my own question.

I was not able to remove the cover apart with "goo gone" I'm hesitant to bake and melt the glue, instead, I cut the sides and pull the LED PCB board - see pic below incase someone have same spoiler light as mine.

Resistors are the culprit. 2 resistors are busted causing 8 LED bulbs not to glow. If I have time I'll mod this up, like adding a fast blinker. The cost of the whole assembly is only $15 though(shipping time..i can't wait).
