    After suffering about an hour stuffing my hand up into the bumper and ending up with countless bruises and scratches...lol jk...

    I used a socket wrench, (not sure what size), I stuffed that sucker up there and did LITTLE turns until it was loose enough to unscrew by hand. It was a bitch!

    I heard that the headlight is a little tricky to remove once unscrewed.
    Did you have to tilt it around, finesse it out?
    Thanks.

    They do take some finessing to get back in once you take it out. Just take your time with putting them in and you will be good. 10MM socket on a 1/4 inch drive works best for that last PITA bolt. And i hope you guys are just leaving that one bolt out and not putting it back in..... I had to remove mine a couple days later bc one didnt seal up completely and got alittle water in it.

    yeah, I had to mess with it to get it completely out...it was no big deal, took all of 30 seconds... as for the PITA bolt, I did not even try to put it back in! the hell with that! haha

    Put it back in the oven for 5 min. That paste in which holds the headlight together is softend and you are able to press it back together, which seals it. They also recommended that you use electrical tape to wrap around the seal area of the headlight to make sure no water goes through
