Glass Headlights. Mystery unraveling ;)

[zavikan]

Well. Just got the glass lights in the mail today. Hoping to figure a few things out.

Pics of disassembly included. And basic line up.



Alright. First removed is the glass. I did this by heating the whole unit in the oven at 230 degrees for 8 minutes. Came apart fairly easily. Used screwdrivers for careful prying. Apologies for oversized images...but then again, now you can see things that much better right?



Now you can see the infamous 'block off plate' This was removed by the two screws in the front, as well as an 'adjuster' screw in the back. Judging by its making, I am fairly confident that our foglight assemblies will bolt right in.



Here is the highbeam light. Note the parking light also inside the housing. Im not sure what I think of that little thing yet...but we will see what happens later.



Beware of this little white thing. It holds in the highbeam/low beam assembly. Its evil. After fighting with it for 10 minutes.....



.....it did this to me. Ok. its just a flesh wound.....anyway, instead of trying to pop it off (as its made), I finagled a way to unscrew the white thing from the back side. and then I was done for the day. (exhausted and hungry. bleeding......*cough*......
