i have 04! haha well i always take the bumper off, and i just tried taking it off with the bumper still on just to see if it work; it was impossible! i was wrong when i was making the write up.

 

^haha...that makes me relieved...good thing i didn't force it and break something!

anyhow..can you provide me the exact location of the clips and bolts to remove the bumper?

thanks!!

 

hmm theres a couple in front of the front wheels, 2 big clips under the front of the bumper. then pop the hood and take off the 2 grilles, there're also 2 clips holding the bumper, and then now the tricky part: there're screws behind the grilles (cant see/reach them unless u take out the grilles.

 

is there a thread about how to remove the 04 bumper?

 

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and I just tried this. In the process of removing the chrome piece from the lense, the chrome piece cracked just about the middle of the main light. I managed to fix it with some putty but it doesn't look as good as it should. Anyone know where I can buy some new headlights that are pre made for less than $150? I will even buy your old chrome lights and try again. Thanks!

 

aww that hurts...
hmm try ebay, upgrade to projector headlights!

 

This how to works on 06's as well just did it last weekend and they came out good...and to update you should definitely put the headlights in the over for 7 mins cause it makes the sealant so much easier to pry open and separate the light from the lens!!!

 

Man, you should have used my write up on how to remove your 04-06 headlights and not the 02-03. I hate getting left out.

 

Lol that would have been handy cause it took us awhile to figure out where it was all connected

 

all that work is definitely not worth it... go and by new headlights on ebay

 

New lights = at least $300
Painting stock = $50 in supplies

Not hard for me to decide lol

 

did your lights leak after you re-sealed them?

 

very nice!

 

this.

I don't trust myself to do this. If I ever meet someone who has done this then I'd let them do it.

 

they did leak because i did not seal them correctly but i took them back off and dryed them out and resealed them and now im good with no leaks :-)
