AE Baking (what to remove)

Just want to make sure it's ok to bake self leveling motors and xenon bulbs when doing the AE retrofit. What exactly should i remove before baking? Does anyone know exactly how many screws there are?

Thanks,
Adam

I baked with the self level, but took out the xenon bulb. one stray screw near the corner (so you dont have to take it out when the light is still hot) and 3 screws holding in a black can behind the xenon bulb. remove the can and twist the xenon bulb clip out, then the bulb pops right out.

I remove everything including the leveling motor, It's only afew more screws so it's well worth the insurance. I also removed all the bulbs.
