1509, Headlight removal
Posted by 98EclipseGS, Feb-18-01 05:01 PM
Hey all,


I just bought a set of projector lights for my 98 eclipse. I tried to remove the old ones today. Can anyone tell me how int he world to get the bottom bolt out? Do I need to remove the front bumper??? I didnt see a way to get at it from under the front of the car. I have blue len's in this set of lights, How do I get a bluish white light? Will this happen without installing a special se tof bulbs? I looked in the FAQ and on VFAQ but I didnt see anything about replacing them and of course the Chilton manual is only worth toilet paper on this subject. Thanks for any help guys/gals

Yep..it sucks..but you'll need to remove the bumper cover, and the actual bumper..the last bole is behind the bumper..

Chances are the places where the bolts go into the projectors wont line up, so you'll have to do some widening with a drill or razor..

Make sure you seal up the projectors with clear silicone before you put them on to avoid any leaks.
