How the f*** do you get the damn headlights off! There is 1 bolt that appears to be on the bottom side of the headlight that is holding it on, I cant seem to get to it! How the f*** am I supposed to take the bumper off if I can't remove the headlights?!

There is a few plugs that are hard to get to and then yes bolt(s) on the bottom are a pain in the ass. It will not come out easily but if I remember you start with the sidemarker light and get that out and you can see back in there more and from there all I have to say is have fun.

Are you trying to remove the bumper or the headlights? The bumper will come off without removing the headlights.

Just don't force anything, bolts in that area have a tendency to break off. Once the bumper is off, it is alot easier to remove the headlights.

remove the marker lights

raise up the car..

look on the two frame rails coming out to the front bumper..

there are 2 bolts in each rail..

remove those bolts 4 total

then remove all of the wheel well plastic... about 3 per side of the push pins.

slide the bumper out!
