Hey guys, I have my projectors and I'm ready to put them in and see how they look. But for the life of me I can't get the stock headlights out. I removed those two screws on top and I'm pulling to get it out and it just wont come. I'm afraid I'm gonna mess up the bumper. Anyone have advice? I feel like I'm retarded trying do to this haha

*Edit* It's all good.

 

Take the plastic clips off the top of the grill so you can bend the grill back somewhat. Then wiggle the headlight out. Wiggle it, don't yank on it

Oh and a trick to the clips on the grill, take a flathead screw driver. Put it in the groove of the clip and just twist the screwdriver from left to right. Should come up easier that way then just trying to pry it in a striaght way if that makes any sense to u

 

x2, try not to break those plastic clips, use a hammer, u know the nail removing part? use that to pry the top part of the clip and it should come out really easy, then pull the bumper plastic out a little as you wiggle the headlight out, be patient and you'll get it

 

FINALLY

I got it out. It was basically on the verge of coming out. I knew if I posted I would jinx it then it'd pop right out haha. Now I just gotta get the other one in haha
Thanks guys

 

the fun part is getting them back in and lined up right

 

i have chipped paint from doing my headlights there was already a chip then i made it worse lol

 

Yea that's what I'm afraid of

 

i've heard of people putting electrical tape on the painted edges for install supposed to work well

 

ah just did my HIDS..came out easy and put them back and they are aligned better..lol

 

Yea that's what i did. Worked pretty well. Getting the Halos back in wasn't too bad. I don't think they're the best made things thought because the one part to screw in doesn't completely line up. The headlight itself looks right though. Either way I'm gonna have to take it out so I can finish messing with the LEDs/Halos.
