My thumbs hurt from trying to take off my headlights.... Does anyone know any secret in doing this. I did this over twenty times already but this time it won't come out. I keep sqeezing and pushing it, but it won't come out..my thumbs are red and numb now.. Any suggestion...I know this is kinda dumb but I gave up after trying for 15 mins..

 

what do you mean, "Take off my headlights?" you're trying to take out the bulb or trying to take the headlight housing off?

 

probably the bulb- that will definitely make your thumbs red.
i dont know anyone who took their headlight compltetely off 20 times

you just gotta keep doing it man- when my fingers hurt, i squeezed the clip even harder and finally got it. try again later when you feel better haha

 

I meant bulb...

 

try wrapping a ruber band around the turning thing that locks the pice in. the ruber band should grip it better than you oily hands. if that is the piece you are having troble with.

 

you could try using a flathead screwdriver and GENTLY try to pry it out, evenly. this is only if you're trying to pull the bulb out of the housing...

 

i use the flathead and, for the nextime i just hit it with a little grease on that plastic piece.

 

buy the bulbs from a small store and tell them that u wont buy it unless they install it
