I would like to replace my existing headlight assemblies for a 2002 allure. Does anyone know how to remove the existing assembly? I am not sure how to do this. Also, it looks like these are from a 1987-1991 ford bronco/f150? Correct?
Also, if anyone is looking for a new entry grab handle- I revd new bolt in unit from CC for $81, it fit perfectly.

thanks

I, too am interested in upgrading the headlights on my 03 Allure. I changed out the bulbs to PIAA halogens and refinished my lenses, both with great results. I still do not like the overall appearance of the big rectangular Ford style headlights on my coach. I have looked at some after market "halo style" items on line, but am hesitant to try them without knowing someone else who actually did so successfully. If anyone has any suggestions regarding this issue, please let me know. Otherwise, I may just resign myself to these old "shoeboxes" and learn to live with them as is. Thanks in advance.............

Bruce,

I have heard that the folks at Extreme Paint and Graphics in Nacadoches, TX do a great job installing projector lamps in motorhomes. It is a complete custom effort but it sure looks great.

Thanks, George. I'll give them a call, but it will be logistically long term before I could get down there (from Oregon)to have the work done should I decide to do so. I appreciate your help.

I replaced my headlights (2002 Intrigue)with the Bronco fixtures a couple of years ago. I don't recall the exact step-by-step that I had to go through. The passenger side was pretty much no trouble but the driver side was a bitc.... I mean a bear! The passenger side was accessible from below but the driver side was not. There is a removable panel in the compartment beneath the driver that allows a little room to reach in and remove the screws necessary to do the job. Not fun!
On my coach there were some minor modifications needed to get the fixtures to fit. I'm not a mechanic or engineer but I was able to get them to work.

Wish I had more detail. Good luck.
