There are 2 long sliding pieces that you remove and undo the harness and thats it.Very easy.

You already have 2 other threads asking this question. Why ask it for the 3rd time?

Idk if they're are retaining brackets on his, he has a 98. The reason I say is that my friends car is a 95 and they're are no sliding retaining brackets behind the headlights, and I think they are the same headlights.

My advice is look at it again, it's prolly so simple you're just looking way to far in depth into the thing. I did this with my 01 headlight set.

Im the dumbass, and you are the guy who cant pull 2 metal tabs out of each headlight? They take 25 second including diconnecting the wiring harness. I think the dumbasses are mixed up here...
haha, dumbass.

Call me what you want, but this is an embarassing post from someone as familiar with the mustang forums as you are. If you are putting in euros, thats your perrogative, but to post how to do it.....

Putting in headlights is not even considered an install to me.

matt, not everyone works at a freaking ford dealership so of COURSE everything comes easy to you. If you whine to a math teacher about algebra, he'd think you're an idiot bc that stuff is 2nd nature to him. Not everyone is stupid because YOU know how to do it

Actually its a Chevy, Cadillac, and Saab dealership...
I dont care who you are, if someone tells you its held in by 2 metal tabs, and you ask 2 more times, you are stupid. Putting air in your tires requires more steps and time than pulling out your headlights.

Again, I really dont think that his 98 has two metal tabs. I KNOW the 95 does not and aren't they the same headlight design?
