What you need is a BFH! Seriously, I don't know, a body shop installed my new headlights when I had them repaint my bumper. TTT for you. Oh and I see you're from Copperas Cove! Welcome!! Nice to have another Central Texan in here. I'm right next door in Killeen.

On the back side there are some "clips" that have to squeeze to fit throught the hole. I used a 12 mm socket (if memory serves me correctly) cause they are hard to squeeze. I pushed in a little & used the socket to push on to squeeze, then pull out. The 1st time is the hardest, once you do it once it gets easy.

if memory serves me correctly, the first thing that you have to do is take the side markers out. should take a 12 mm put dont quote me on that. the next thing are the alignment aimers in the headlamp itself. you have to squeeze the heck out of them to get them out. forgot how many there are total but i think there are 3 total. one toward the inside of the light and two on the outside closest to the fender. hope this helps.

I took out my headlights in -32 degrees celcius last year to put in my new smoked ones....for the love of god those things were a b%##@ to get out, and putting the smoked ones in wasn't so nice either....get some pics of that beast!

It took me about 10 minutes. Took off each corner...easy. Then there are the little star sorta shaped plastic bits that hold the lights in, pop those off with needle nose or a flat head screwdriver once u get most off just reef out the headlight. replacements come with all new clips.

looks good. installed mine today and it wasn't as simple as i was expecting. stupid ebay guy said i wouldn't have to modify anything--direct bolt-on replacemnt--bull****. i got them on just before night time, so i gotta go out tomorrow and adjust/fine-tune them. they stick out a bit, so i'm hopng to align them and get them sitting inside the housing correctly. very cool--man, what a difference.

I had to take mine back out. One was foggy. That was a pain. Then I had to put another whole set in. Talk about being difficult. I still have to adjust them, they aren't cooperating.

hey we know some of the same people! I know Kenny, I've bought some parts off him before. I also know Kyle. Did Rich use to have a 95 Cobra, and a Lightning? Cus I knew a Rich that had both of those cars before.

Rich moved? I haven't really kept up with the guys a whole lot lately. Especially since Little River closed down. Did you ever know a guy named Rick? He had a black 01 or 02 GT with the stalker body kit, a big cowl hood, military stickers on it? He moved a while back too.
