Headlights and turn signals...
As dumb as this may sound, I just cant seem to get out the headlights and turn singals on my 92 v8 302 F150 Truck, im farely new to the truck world so spare with me here please... but the most i can get out to being to remove them is 2 screws from under the hood, which attrah to the chrome frame, it almost looks like you have to go through the wheel, but that seems to comlicated to remove the wheel and plastic protecter ?
It just must be something simple I am not seeing or understanding on how to remove the front lights, if anyone can help me out or direct me to a web page with a sort of How-To, too change them please help me out, thanks alot!

Travis ,
The headlights are Halogen bulbs which can be accessed from under the hood . They simply turn lock in the headlight lens . If they need replacing , simply unplug the electrical connection to the headlights , Some use a plastic lock ring , others just the bulb locks in place , remove the old bulb and replace it with a new one being careful not to touch the bulb itself . As for the turn signals on your truck , Im not familiar with how you access them . I have a 90 F150 and in 10 yrs , Ive never had to replace any parking , brake or turn signal bulbs . I think they are Phillips , flat pin type bulbs and they have to be the longest lasting bulbs I have ever seen .

Remove the top two screws that hold the bezel to the grill opening. Then remove the two lower nuts on the back of the signal light (the long lower orange one). With these 4 attachment points removed you should be able to pull the complete parking/turn/side indicator light assembly out. Unplug the bulb connectors and remove the assembly completely. You may have to remove the battery on the passenger side and the windshield washer rad overflow resevoir on the driver side for easier access to the lower nuts, but try it without first.
