Help with changing arm on Eye Jacket

[GeoJuice]

Hi,
I'm trying to replace the arm on my Eye jacket Jokers and was wondering if there is a video or instructions on how to do it. I don't want to break another one.
Thanks in advance for any help!

There is no special video for EJ, but it's the same hinge system as in many other models. You need to do it carefully with a thin plastic tool and even in that case you cant be sure in success because of old plastic EJ (it's not xmetal so it's very fragile).
Here is the example:

do you think that warming them a bit will help them be a little more pliable?

No, you may damage the lacquer coating of the glasses if it is lacquer, or completely destroy the finish if it is FMJ.
