Removing Head Lights
I got a new set of chrome head light doors to replace the factory grey set. What is the trick to removing the head light assembly? I removed the passenger side battery and removed one nut behind the light but it was still being held in by something else and I couldn't figure out how to get to it. You have to remove the whole assembly to replace the headlight doors because there are screws underneath that you can't reach when the light is in place.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
