Removing headlight

[Andrew Tollison 3]

This might sound lik a dumb question but I am going to remove the airbox resonator tomorrow and I can not get my passanger side headlight out. I can get one clip up but not the other. What can I use to to pop the other clip up so I can remove it?

I take a rag wrap it around a small pry bar and lightly lift on it...



Your better off removing the air filter cover and remove it that way.

Pliers? I just gave it a hard yank and it eventually gave.

I use channel-lock pliers to grab the tab and lift FIRMLY. You might even try a shot of lubricant like WD-40 or silicone spray on the slide lock.

I asked the same question a year ago...it was my first post too! Similar to what Todd Z said, I used a rope and stood on a chair for more leverage. It popped with no trouble at all.

Yeah.. I had issues too.... And pulling that airbox out wasen't easy either. I used a wrag and a flathead...

thanks for the help I will try in when I am not to busy. I'll post on my progress.

I have the same problem with one of my clips. I just use the claw end of a hammer to pull up on it with minimal effort. Ditto on the airbox being a PITA to remove.

I pulled the headlight and then ended up pulling the air box out anyway. while it was out I cleaned too.
