I'm feeling a little stupid and having a little trouble trying to get the headlights off.

I can't figure out how to get this part off, I don't even know what it is..

 

that gave me trouble the first time too, its the headlight washer.

-press the clips on the side of the shaft in, and remove the washer cover (the half moon shape thing in front.) through the front of the headlight.

-then I believe the rest of the assembly you can push out (towards the engine, when your hood is up)

 

Awsome, just got them off. Thanks.

Should be smooth sailing from here.

 

you're welcome, good luck with the joey mod

 

Here's the trick: undo the 3 screws holding the Xenon ballast on, and it will swing away on its hinge. The complete headlight assembly can now be removed from the front (outside) of the bonnet. I removed these silly washer thingys ages ago, as I never washed my headlights (how did we get along without them for all those decades?). No washers, no hoses, nothing but clean headlights and bonnet liner.

 

Yeah, decided to remove the washers completely. I didn't even know I had them haha.

I'll be putting it all back together in a few minutes. I'll post a quick picture when I'm done.

 

Viola
Can't wait to see it in daylight

 

 

oh great job, its cool to see the headlight in white

 

Did you use that BBQ paint, or?...

 

Plasti-dip
It's looking a little grey-ish because of the lighting

 

what about the white bits?

 

Oh, for the white I used this PW spray from someone on the NAM forums.

I think this is what it is--

Minspeed also sells paint to match the body paint
