i had a hard time take out the headlight housing and was unable to do so at the end.
can someone give me tips on how to remove the housing, or would removing the bumper ease the removal?
thanks in advance!

you dont need to remove the bumber. pull the headlight out at an angle. with inner side out first look under the headlight its just barely in there cause if the bottom, push down bumber down just enough so you can slide the headlight. i had a hard time getting mine out the first time, but now i can get them out in seconds.

thanks for the reply..although i notice you have an 03 OZ....I can tell that those seem to be easier to remove than 04+
I'm interested in getting an 04+ headlight out. I'll probably have to wait til next Satruday to try it again. I hope by then someone would have some more ideas on how to take it out.
