headlight replacement

I am trying to replace headlight assy. I removed the two upper screws holding headlight trim on. I read there should be two nuts on the back between assy and washer tank. I have removed the washer tank. Dang if I see any nuts back there except for nut plates. Does any one have a photo showing these nuts.

Look in there towards the core support. See all them holes? 2 of them have studs hidden inside. 1 towards the corner marker light, and 1 inboard of that. You'll have to feel inside each one but you'll get 'em. You cannot see them just by looking unless you have a mirror, just gotta feel for them.

Yeah, feel around for them and use a long 7/16" socket. Once you know where they are, you won't forget and since you have removed your washer tank, they shouldn't be too hard to get to.
