Wow this is frustrating.
I'm having one hell of a time taking off those damn headlights. I want to take them off to paint my housin black, but I just can't seem to get it off! I took off the two screws on top and the ones on the left side and the corner and my headlights won't budge Either that or I just need to pull harder but I feel like I'm going to break it. It seems to me that there's a bolt on the very corner that I forgot but I searched everywhere and couldn't find it.
I used to search function and I thought I found a post that would help me but the pictures were all broken
I'm so damn frustrated right now.

Before I tried taking off my lights, I was going for the bumper. I figured out there was two clips under the light or maybe just one, so I thought I'd have to take the headlights off first. I removed all the clips and the two screws under the fenders, what am I missing to take off the bumper?
Thanks for your help so far!

There's also a screw under each headlight just before the corner. So it looks like I can't take off my bumper without taking out the headlights first, but I'm a n00b and now I'm being told the bumper has to come off first and that seems almost impossible.
Please help

u have to take out ur bumper lenses and behind them there are 2 screws on each side. take them out and unclip the lining in the fenders from the bumper. also there is one screw too. after that just slide the bumper up and pull off.

LOL!!! I think you should just give up now! If you can't figure out that there are bumper lenses, or let's call them turn signal lenses for you - can you say tuuuuurrrrrnnnn siiiigggnnnaaaalllll leeennnnsssseeesss? They are in your bumper under your headlights and that they need to come off to get at the screws to take off your bumper than you really shouldn't be messing with your car. Jeez - I never took off my bumper and I figured out what the guy was saying to take them off! Good luck~

i'll do them for $500 shipped jk man.
it's real easy, take the bumper lenses out (turn signal thingies) and there's 2 bolts per side, take them out, unclip the plastic clippy thingies, then slide the bumper up and out. then you'll figure out the lights

Whatever, I came here thinking this forum was n00b friendly. This is my first car I've never messed with this shit before and I actually learned a lot. I thought I was welcome to seek advice here but guess not, I'm sorry if I burdened any of you.
Atleast I know where NOT to ask for advice.
Bumper lenses confused me, corner lenses may have lit the bulb.
I guess I'll just be a forum observer.

twopointthree, damn dude, we're helping you out, aren't we? we have 2 sets of corner lights, upper and lower, so that's even more confusing than bumper lights. The only lights in the bumper are bumper lights. Dont get so frustrated newb everything you need is right in front of you
