Projector headlights - Bumper removal and headlight replacement

[silverkorn]

Tools:
large bit phillips head scredriver
small bit phillips head scredriver
10mm socket
1/4" socket wrench with extension

First remove the two screws holding the side markers in, and remove the side markers. then remove the two bolts holding the front skid panel, both bolts are 10mm. Next remove the screw on top of the bumper towards the nose, you will need are larger bit to do this right. next remove the second screw holding the bumper on facing out. Next you have to turn the wheel in order to access the next set of screws. For driver side cut the wheel to the passenger side, then you will see two recesed screws holding the back of the bumper. ones those 8 screws have been removed the plastic bumper can be pulled off.

now you have to remove the metal bumper. you will need a 10mm socket and remove the 4 bolts holding it in the frame. Its easier to remove the bottom ones from both sides first then remove the top ones.

next is the headlights. your going to have to pop the hood for this one. there are a total of 4 10mm bolts holding each headlight in. its easier to remove the lower one first. you will need the extension to get to this one. i had a 3" and was just bearly fitting so a 4 or 5" would be easier for this bolt. next remove the bolt on the outside of the light. then remove the top two bolts and then pull out the headlight and unplug the bulbs.

to put back together just reverse the steps. this is an easy job and took me by myself about 2 hours without knowing how to do it.
