Re: question about headlight bracket ?

["Dan RC30" <Danrc30@xxxx>]

Yes, the fascia has to be removed to access the headlamp brackets. When I 
put the custom headlights and brackets in my car this summer (pics are in 
the files on the e-groups site), I had to remove the hood to get to the 
fascia screws on top. It was easier that way. I also had to remove the nuts 
connecting the lower airdam to the fascia. I removed the whole airdam to 
make it easier. Be careful, you're gonna break a lot of bolts... You might 
even have to remove a nut that holds the fascia to the body near the upper 
part of the fender on each side. I know there's a bolt sticking out from the 
fascia, but I don't know if it was used with a nut on all the cars. It 
wasn't used on mine. I'm pretty sure that's about it. Good luck!

Subject: question about headlight bracket ?

I have to replace all my headlight brackets for my front headlights.
I've gotten everything taken out (it was a real pain considering
every screw was stripped and rusted out) except the main bracket
(part #101369). It seems impossible to reach the screws for this
bracket without removing the front fascia?? It looks like the
opening where the headlights come out is too small to get this
bracket out.

So my question is this: Do I have to remove fascia or anything to
get the screws out and to install a new bracket for my headlights ??

If so, does anyone have a step by step guide on how to remove it ? or
how I should go about this...

Any comments or ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,
James Teston
