It depends on what kind of sealant it is. Just take a razor knife and cut along the seam of the headlight. This should allow you to open the headlight. This will not work on the OEM sealant since it is all the way on the inside of the headlight.

That tells me youve had it apart before because you state that you re-sealed it.... Just do what you did before...

here is a previous thread that goes into more detail.
