Headlight Removal
Hey Everyone,
I need to remove my headlights. I found some suggestions on other forums but they don't seem to work. It was suggested to simply pull up on the retaining clips at the back but they won't pull up. There seems to be little tines that clip into the sides of the adjusters. Any guidance on how to get these retaining clips out?
Thanks so much!

I had to give mine holy hell. Used a bent needlenose vice grip pliers and sat in the engine bay. I found it helped to push the headlight housing in as I was pulling to relieve some of the pressure. I hope that helps.

Arghh - broke the clip on the retaining piece. Looks like I might as well buy 4 new ones in preparation for others braking.
On another note, how about Team Canada! That was a heck of a game. Nice work by the USA at the end of the third - wow...

Sorry about the clips. Congrats on the game. I thought we were gonna pull it off in OT. Canada was just more physical and was winning races for loose pucks. Great game.

Meh whatever - I'm sure they're only $50 each at the dealer 
Cheers - that was some great hockey all around, no matter who won. So many of the games were lob sided that they just weren't fun to watch. This one was fantastic...
