I bought some new head light covers that are clear. But, I can't figure out how to get the stock ones out. There is a clamp on one of the screws and is extremely tight and I can't figure out how to get them out and neither does my friend. Can anyone post some steps to get them off, or a link?

Thanks

Alright I think your talking about taking the headlight housing off. If thats the case there are 3 screws holding it in. 1 on the top and 2 on the bottom. The top one is held in by a clip that clips onto the screw between the car and the plastic ball. You need to pull the clip out (It should be black) then the plastic ball will slide through and out of the car. The bottom 2 have the same plastic balls but instead of a metal retaining clip there are buttons I guess you would call it on the top and bottom of the platic balls. If you understood anything I just said the headlight housing will slide right out the front, unless it gets caught on the side marker lights and in that case you will have to remove the single nut holding the corner in to get the headlight out.

Hahaha I hope that made some sense to you guys.
