    Headlight

    my headlight glass broke should i replace the whole headlight or just the glass

    how about you search around and see if its possible to buy just the glass, and when you realize that you cant, youll resort to buying a whole new headlight.

        You can use just the glass if you take your penis and press REALLY hard around all the fine edges before you install it.

          you really have to take the whole bumper off to replace the headlight housing.

            What's so hard about taking off the front bumper? it's a ten second job, and yes you have to pull the bumper to pull the HL's

              its easier to remove the bumper than it is to remove say... a rear tail light.

              if you need help removing the bumper, search the DIY forum for the "bumper removal" guide by USC or buy a Haynes manual from autozone.

                      and since you're gonna have the front bumper off and working with headlights anyway..why not upgrade them if you haven't already (or if you have the spare $ lying around)
