jiggity76 Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 I need to replace these lenses and wanted to know if I need to pull the headlamps out first. I remember that I had some problems last year at a junkyard pulling them and not quite sure how to do it. Any tips would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 On the mini quad design IIRC you might have to pull the black shroud and its just a single 7mm or 8mm bolt. Should be similar with the setup you have in your avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggity76 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Never thought of that! I for the life of me couldn't get the one out of a 89 SL car in a junkyard. I thought about practicing and pulling the ones out of my parts car, there bad too but at least I can see how they come out and not worry about busting anything.

94 olds vert Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 My CS is easy. It's one small bolt and it's out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what was up with that car in the junkyard, made me mad that I couldn't get it out. I think that they have some plastic molded tabs that slide into the fender and sort of lock into it and then bolt down but not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94 olds vert Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 If I recall there is a tab that slides into the fender. It's best not to break that. I found this picture that shows one mounting tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was loose but just couldn't free it. That's a sedan one you have pictured by the way and they are different/longer that the coupes. I've made that mistake before that's why I know! 94 olds vert and Imp558 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
