Headlight removal help?
I'm trying to remove my factory headlights and corners but I'm having trouble figuring it out. I used to search function and read that there should be acouple nuts on the backside to take off and then just pull the assembly out. I only have 1 nut on the backside, and it is for the corners. There are bolts, but they appear to be a kind that doesn't require a spin on washer/nut...
Help me?

Yes, its a 98, but I figured it out, so its all good
First you have to take a nut off for the corner light then pull it and it pops out of place. Disconnect. There is a clip on one of the adjuster bolts that you pull off and then the plastic plug that holds the bolts can be pushed back through the hole. I couldnt figure that out at first so I had to adjust the bolts all the way down and finnaggle it out :P.
Who ever said its a 10 minute job can kiss my ***. Maybe if you do them all day long, but mine is being a pain. The driver side will go 10x as fast.

sn95 is a 10 minute job too, if you know what to do. i spent about an hour on my first one, but then the second one went for about 5 minutes, by the way the single lensed headlights are even easier to remove and install(you don't have to unscrew the nut)
Ok, got em in and lookin good! Did I say good?, I meant GREAT!
Pictures will be up in a bit...
Took me almost 3 hours, but mostly becuase it took be forever to figure out how it was held in there, and I removed a few pieces off the engine bay to clean, like the plastic tray above the raditor. The second one took me probably only 20 minutes. I was taking my time so I didnt scratch them or break a clip...
Now I really want to get the front end painted becuase the whole time all I saw was bumper scratches :P

I bought them on Ebay, here's a link..

I didn't think it was that bad of a price and for the most part they fit pretty good. I still need to adjust them when it gets dark tonight.
I'd recommend that seller.
