I finally did it. I woke up around 4:00 am, intending on going to the gym, as I entered the garage I looked at the front end and decided now is the time. In total it took around 2hrs. I used the sharp screwdriver method. It looks F'in Rad!! Just thought I would share. Peace

 

Cool, where's the pics??

Any tips for this method?

 

I dont have a digie camera so there will be no pics. I followed the instructions posted earlier this month. I had been puttin it off forever. All that you need is a 10mm wrench/socket a hammer and a long skinny flathead screwdriver. Once you take off the grill you simply look for the bolts that secure the bumper. I think in total there are about eight. I secured the bumper with wire rather than removing it. Once you get to that point you will know what I am talkin about. Then I took out the headlight assembly. Once I removed the bulb I inserted the screwdriver and gave it a quick couple of whacks with the hammer. I then broke all of the pieces with a pair of wire cutters and removed them. I cleaned up the little fragments with a shop vac. I then reassembeled it and was done. I didnt put the bulbs back in, I am going to replace em with clears later today. For all of you that are wantin to do this simple mod dont be ascared Just Do It!!!!

 

Do you have a link to the directions on how to do this? I WANNA DO THIS NOW!!!!!!! THanks.

 

i used the oven method cleared mine...

wondering how can u pull out the lil clips goes into the housing :?:

 

Sounds pretty simple & quick.

What about the clips? Do they stay in place or fall out on the headlight side?

They just break off......

 

how much is one headlight I kind of cracked mine using the screwdriver method it took me about three hours to do the first light and broke the chrome housing holding the orange reflector and ten minutes to do the second one one advice dont brake the refelctor to close to the housing. Brake somewhere in the middle and work your way down to the corner until there is a good inch left and use the hammer to chisel at the reflector until the thing pops out dont so what I did and brake the reflector right at the corner of the housing and spend hours trying to dig a stupid little piece of orange out which is still in the stupid light.
