Okay........After eighteen years of blissful (yea right!) ownership, my headlights have started bouncing up and down due to the loose pivot bearings... People in front of me are getting a great show when driving at night. Question is.....How do you access those boogers for replacement? Anybody here had the pleasure of tackling these gems? I'm all ears!

                                      Thanks,

When I did mine, I removed the whole assembly.

You remove 3 bolts at the top of the assembly, where it bolts to the underside of the hood surround. A 1/2 in. socket, I believe, swivel adapter, and a long extention will get the job done for you.

Good luck

  Thanks for the input. I haven't been able to take a look yet, but was planning on doing it this weekend.  Sounds like this is gonna be fun!

Reid,

 I did it this way, because it looked like the easiest way to access the pivots. Also, I freshend up the nylon bushings, and cleaned and lubed everything up, so it all works flawlessly.

The lights worked great, until I tore the whole car apart.

Have fun

Alan
