how to take off headlights?

[jacksprat]

how do I remove the headlights? I took off the obvious two bolts on top, and removed the two plastic tabs holding the plastic peice below the headlight. The plastic peice is still held on the other side by something and the headlight doesnt move at all. Im scared to break something so any help would be appreciated.

I had to replace my passenger side headlamp after hitting a turkey buzzard at 70mph! That plastic piece under the headlight is held in place with 2 plastic push in pins that you see all over the truck! The other side is held with long pins that are attached to the plastic piece you are trying to remove. You must pry that plastic piece off, pulling straight back as to not break the pins! However, my plastic piece was broken by the impact of the bird, so I can not tell you how much force it takes to remove.
If you do break it the part was $44.00 and painting at the dealer was 46.00! Good luck! oh yea, you are concerned with 5,6 and 7 !

It takes a good amount of force to pull the plastic piece off I broke one of the pins off. Just pull straight out and you should be good
