Headlight removal?

Yahoo Message Number: 63772
Hello folks

I would like to change out my dim headlights. Anyone know how to remove the headlights on a 03 Allure? Can the attaching hardware be accessed from the front? I hope so, because it doesn't look too promising from behind. TIA

Larry Rather than change out the headlights, you can convert them to HID bulbs. There are a number of places to buy them, if you Google " HID conversions ". I did that some time ago and got some info at www.extremehids.com . You will need to know which headlamp you have in the coach, to get the proper lamp. I looked at the same issue with my coach and the lamps are fibreglassed in and would not be an easy swap to anything else. We don't night drive all that much, so I am not in a big hurry to do it at this time.

Hi Larry, I replaced my passenger side, but you won't believe the job it took. I'm very skinny and climbed up from the bottom reaching over the Kwikee step assembly and began with a razor knife to cut away the silicon from the adjuster lock in screw/bolts.

I'll reply to you off-line as it is a long hard story.

Thanks, Mike 03 Allure 1st Ave. #30898

Thanks Ron. From what Mike tells me, replacement is not going to be easy. If I have to remove them by accessing the back of the headlight, I'll need to get a small person (grandchild?) to crawl up in there. I won't fit back there. I might just have to minimize night driving for a while.
