How to install headlights?
Hey everyone i am purchasing new projector headlights, front bumper lights, and rear side marker lights. Does anyone know where to get instructions on this? I tryed doing a search with no luck. thanks
well its easier said than done...to remove your stock headlights, you will need to remove your entire front bumper...you will need a grinder the grind down the rivets holding the front bumper on as well....once it is remove, you can easily accessyour headlight bolts and remove them...with your bumper cover off, you will see on the inside of the bumper, the back of your front corner lights...they are held in place by plastic clips...just work the light and it will come right off of the clips...as for the rear side marker lights, you just need a flat head screw driver to gently pry up on the side of the light cover that is closest to the rear of the vehicle then it will come right out...
If I'm correct the only time grinding is needed is when you are transferring the entire side marker assembly to a new bumper. Even then, you could probably just drill out the rivets carefully. I know I had to do it when I installed my Roush fascia.
he is keeping the bumper but changing out al lthe lights....most will tell you some grinding is required because there are a couple of rivets that you will need to break...i cant remember whether it was for the bumper or the front marker lights, but some grinding was required when i installed my roush bumper but used my side marker lights from the original bumper on the new bumper....note, the grinding is only needed to break the appx 2 rivets...

Then this for the headlights....
Finally, you can use this for the front and rear side markers....

It was for the bumper swap...
The bumper brackets are secure with rivets.
The turn signals snap into 2 clips that are on those brackets (After you slide it in that slot at the other end)
NO DRILLING REQUIRED FOR ANY KIND OF LIGHTS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE CAR.
Mike, don't take it wrong please, I'm just saying...
