How do you take out your headlight?

What bolts do I need to take off to get my headlight off?
Does anybody have a write up on this for me?

Ditto. btfm (1st word = buy, last word = manual) It's only $15.


I'll give you a hint to get you started, but you should refer to a shop manual so you don't break anything.

1st, you need to remove the front grille.

Next, you remove the bolt that secures the top of the clearance light to the radiator support bracket. Then the front of the clearance light needs to be pulled away from the edge of the headlight to release a male/female ball/socket mount.

The rest should be obvious.

there are a couple of PAIN IN THE *** bolts on the top edge of the lights. the hardest part is getting a socket in there to take those suckers off. besides that, its a piece of cake.
