It sounds like a trivial issue, but has anyone taken off a facelift headlight?
I have checked the forum, but found nothing specific.
The only obvious bolt is the one 10mm on top. Are there others? From underneath maybe?
It is loose, but I don't want to force it in case I snap something.
Thanks guys.
 
You will need to drop the bumper off to do it properly… there are 3 torx 30 under each wing… the wheel are liners are best taken off for better access.
Then there are the 4 screws on top and 4 underneath if they haven't fallen out….they are also torx 30….
 
Thanks for the info, it looked like that alright.
I just can't comprehend the thinking behind the individuals that design in that way. It used all be so much easier to take bits off. This can't be pawned off as improvement or development.
Anyway, I was able to put the bulb holder back in with an old side view mirror so I didn't need to take the bumper off. It would have been much easier if the headlight came off easily.
