Got some clear corners for my 88 F150, but having trouble removing the stock units. Pulled the bulb out, and then there are two nuts on threaded rods, and then two screws. I have tried removing both and it comes loose but not out. Does the headlight have to come out first? I can get them loose but not out. Also, it looks like the clear units have holes for the threaded studs but none included- do I swap them over? Thanks in advance.

 

If I remember correctly there are only 3 screws holding the corners on, as far as the new ones, you can try using the original screws, you may have to buy new ones at a hardware store.

Good luck, you'll like the result

 

Thanks- do you remember if you had to remove the headlights first? It looks like there is a tab on the corners that might catch the headlights when trying to remove them.

 

I removed the grille, and the plastic headlight brackets. The headlight and corner will come off at the same time as one unit, then you'll have good access to the screws holding the corners on. ou can take the corner lights off the bracket without touching the headlights. Hope that helps

 

Yeah the whole headlight assembly has to come out first, and to do that the grill has to come off because there are a couple bolts for the headlight behind it. Then there are a couple more through the rad support directly behind the headlight.. so the battery and washer resovoir have to come out, and then there are a couple on the outside on the corner lamp itself.

 

Wow that is the first butter face I have loved

 

Thanks Iowan

Conanski is right as always, but if you can fit your hand fown there, you don't have to remove the washer resovoir... I didn't
