There are three nuts that you will need to take off. Use a 1/4 inch drive small rachet and a socket. It's a tight fit, you might have to loosen the side marker light to get the headlight assembly out. The headlight and adjuster plate comes off together. Then the adjuster screws come off by pulling off the little clips.

I would do what 00limited7 said if you want to take off the headlight housing. BUT if you want to talk it off your gonna need ALOT of time and some sweet whispers to get that old horse to do what you want.
