Headlight
01 Superduty headlight burnt out.
Its a sealed beam, havnt changed one of those for years. Most are bulbs.
Anyway I took all the screws I could see from around the headlight door,
and underneath it.
Headlights still in there as solid as when I started.
Anyone know what screws I seem to be missing?

pull the door off, then remove the 2 or 3 screws that hold the retainer ring to the light bucket.

C-4 Universal disassembler tool.
Does the job every time.
Have you tried Youtube?
This is the wrong type for you and the only one I could find.
I did dig up the 03 sealed beam replacement steps if that helps.

Go to owner.ford.com and pull down a PDF of your owners manual. I use it more then going out to the truck to open mine up. Nice resource.

Did you also look at the PDF that I attached at the bottom of the post?
That came from the Ford 2003 Shop Workbook.
