Headlamp Cover removal
Wondering if someone can help me out.
I have a 93 ford F350
I broke the clear running light plastic cover on the passenger side
I bought a new one but to install it I have to remove the entire
plastic frame
There are two scews at the top which are easy to get at
My question is how do I get to the bottom screws?

You have to remove the battery or the coolant recovery/windshield washer tank depending on the side your working on. There are 2 other nuts that hold the turn signal housing on. They are directly behind it. They arent too hard to get to but kind of a PITA. You will need a deep well socket and maybe a small extension. I can't remember what size it is.

They are hidden back there. You can barely get your fingers on them. The best way to explain where they are though is directly behind the parking/turn signal light. This is the amber lense. They are in close to the same position as the 2 screws above the headlight on the plastic trim either chrome or grey. Maybe that will help you some. Also, be careful as they are easy to drop.

I found them...LOL
I had to remove the battery and the battery base
You cannot see the two bolts but they are there behind the plate the horns are
attached to
You can also see one bolt if you go under and look up
The access holes for these two bolts are just above the horns
They are a real pain to get at

No need to remove the horns
The access holes to get at the nuts are just above the horns
They are right where Tex says they are
You cannot see them but they are there
Takes a 7/16 long socket to remove them
Hope this helps
