Needing some help...Did the 2005 headlight update but I don't know what the screw clip things are called for the top two screws (mine didn't come with any in the box),
What are those clips called and where can I find them?
I found this video where you can see them pretty well at 1:20. It's definitely speed clips, but they're a bit longer than the ones I pictured earlier. By the way the person in this video is doing it wrong, you're supposed to take the grill out first because the headlights actually recess behind the grill a bit. You can see him wiggling and forcing the headlight past; good way to cause scratches.
They should have adjustment right on top of the housing. If they are mounted, as you stand in front of the headlight, look towards the center of the truck and there is a 6-sided rod that you can adjust. Basically just up and down, sideways will need to be shimmed. at 1:13 into that video you can see it.
Thanks for the tip on the adjustment screw...the passenger side hits a little low as compared to the driver side...and I'll need to check both for general height anyway.
A before/after pic of the driver side and an after pic of the passenger side.
I did have to do a little bit of trimming on the top of the clip that wasn't shown in other posts...the top inside edge of the light housings kept hitting the clip preventing the top inside screws from lining up.
VERY happy with the new light output vs. the old...even when the old ones were new they couldn't TOUCH what these can - whatever they did to the reflector design makes all the difference.
Did you use oem or aftermarket? 1Aauto? I've been contemplating this upgrade for some time.
