Headlight removal

Post by roadcapDen »

I searched but couldn't find how to take off the cover to change the headlight bulb, can y'all point me in the right direction.
Could it be the philips screws on the side or the nuts that you can see thru the side?
Thanks,

i think he just wants to remove the whole light unit, not the bulb. iirc, there are two phillips underneath going into the cover that houses the speedo, then there are two tens on the sides. that's from memory, so don't rip it apart if that doesn't do it, there might be two more bolts/screws.

Thanks Mikes,
Is it a sealed unit or can you just replace the bulb.
Still can't figure out how to take it off, the 2 screws on the side just keep turning w/o loosening.
