how to take out r32 headlights?

[Nizmo32_Josh]

Anybody carried this out before and actually got them out? i took 3 bolts and 2 nut's off the headlight and it was still firmly in position!

Remove indicator assembly, exposes 2 bolts.

2 nuts (?) accessible from engine bay.

I think that's all I had to remove.

Need to jiggle them a bit to get them up and over the front bar.

oh ok i got the 2 bolts ok but got one nut from engine bay and 2 more from the opposite side from the bolts.

i tried this when i wnted to make a CAI, and found that even when you remove all the bolts its IMPOSSIBLE! the thing is just firmly in place and won't budge!

I spent a good 3 hours looking for extra bolts but i had something from a website about how to remove the headlight and it showed the bolts to remove. all it will do is wiggle a bit but won't come out!

But hey i wish you luck anyway...

There's 2 in the engine bay.

On the driver's side, there's 1 just below the top of the radiator support panel, and another one about 6" down (behind the P/S lines)

On passenger side, same at top, and 1 down behind the charcoal canister (from memory, its a while since I took the LH one out).

The 2 nuts from the opposite side of the bolts should be welded to the body.

In the worst case, you might also need to remove the front bar.
