anyone have any decent directions or a good link for a how to replace the whole headlight assembly ? I got hit up there in the front corner ever slow lightly but caused a little crinkle .. was driving down the highway and the whole plastic shield piece blew off ..

thanks in advance

pop the hood, pull a half dozen plastic push pins in the plastic cover, there are two metal clips that hold the assy to the header: pull them back and up to release the headlight assy. Reach behind the assy to unplug the four lamps. (you may have to pull the mud flap back that is in front of the tire to get to some of the pig tails)

Hey DUlrich1227,

I can update that with good pics :thumbsup:


Red arrows are the push pins that hold on the cover.
White circles are adjusters.

Remove those two p Pins and the one in the midle on the side you are removing.
The black cover lifts out of the fender, hold it aside.

Red arrows here are the tabs that pull up.
-(They can be sharp on the edges)
One pulls up and out , the other only lifts up while you pull out the headlight assembly. unplug wires then remove the headlight bulbs, cation with the black rings(if your new light didint come with new ones) they are cheap and break easily.
Yello circles are the adjusters.
