Silly ?, but how do you remove the headlights? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Debating about doing the halos on my 2LT, but Im a bit nervous about getting the headlight housings out...I couldnt seem to find any walkthrough of it, but I swear I saw a thread showing that it involved removing the front bumper and fenders.....

Any thoughts on this? That's a bit more than a driveway project!

Send Mohrg Beast a PM, he just finished adding green halos to his black camaro. Here's a link to his journal, he has some pics of the completed install posted there.

Also the Owners manual in section 9-34 and up has some information.

Thanks, sent him a PM. Still hoping for someone to give some kind of a walkthrough on how hard it is to get the housings out of the car....do I need to take off body panels?

There is a video on utube that walks you through the process.

yeah you have to remove the bumper but don't ask me how. mine was removed by a shop so i can't give you an idea of how many screws you need to remove but from the looks of it, it wont be a hard job and yes you can do in your driveway.

If someone has the instruction on the OEM front spoiler that will show you how to remove the the front bumper.
