Here is an article
Tims I/C Page example

Hate to tell you though your y-pipe isn't going to work. It need to be one from an early 99 other wise the turbo connection is wrong, the whole deal it too tall and it won't fit at the heads either

ya i got it as a package deal. I put it in there and it was way to big and wasnt sure if there was adapters to make it fit but i guess not. Does ford still sell the early 99 y pipe?

Thanks

if you have a good dealer connection the y pipe will only cost you about 80 bucks, but dont forget the 2 orange boots as well

There are two nuts on the back side of each headlight. Somewhere in the 11-12mm size, I can't remember for sure. You'll probably need to pull the batteries in order to get a better look in there. Once those nuts are off, the headlight assembly will pull out the front far enough to remove the bulbs and then remove the rest of the way.
