headlight removal
#2
-Take off the grill
-Take off the side lights, Screw is on top of the headlights on the ends where the fender is. Take a flat head with a rag and lightly pry them.
-Remove the 2 bolts on the side of the headlight after you taken off the side lights.
-On the other side of the headlight by the radiator there are 3 bolts. Remove the top one and the lower one. Disregard the middle one because it doesnt do anything.
-When you removed your front grill look in that area for any bolts/screws. I cant remember if there were any.
When it comes time to take them off keep on eye out for your headlight adjusting bars make sure you get them through the hole nice without getting it stuck and yanking them. Its pretty simple. 10 min per side, take your time remember what bolt goes where. Use a 1/4 drive with a 10 or 12mm i cant remember. NO extentsion trust me because its going to be a ***** to remove the drivers side one.

thanx - i ended up removing both headlights and the grill as one piece b/c i couldn't figure out how to get the little plastic snap off - it felt like it was about to break so i just did it the safe way. Once i had the whole thing off it was much easier to seeand fugure out the proper way of removing it.
BTW - i hit the lights with some polish i found at autozone - Plastx. (guys it the detailing form helped me out) My lights were really foggy from oxidation and it removed all of it
- thanx for all your help.
