02 headlight question
I don't know how a spider got into my headlight but there is a spiderweb inside my passenger's side headlight housing. Does anybody know what I should do? Do I have to take everything apart?
Thanks in advance.

I believe there is a small tube that provides ventilation to the headlight assembly (the fogs have one too). Perhaps the spider crawled in there, and noticed the light at the other end. Tough place to catch a meal!!!!!

man.. I thought I was the unlucky one...
Anyways... if my dealer wouldn't replace my headlight for free, how difficult is it to take the headlight apart?
Anybody ever posted a how-to on this? (search feature disabled
)
thanks again.
