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. |

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

haha, dumbass. :loser: 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 |

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?

Lol @ euros
|
^^^^^^ nice sig.
Wow, old thread! |
Wow! You really came in and knocked the dust off this antique diddnt ya?
|
alright to keep it on track, on the 94 to 98 models theres three or four long thin bolts, you can adjust with a 4 mm wrench, at the base of the bolts theres plastic domes with 2 flaps. you squeeze in those flaps and push away from the car. once you get them all unlocked like that then you can pull the headlight out. sorry but the 94-98 headlight suck major balls to get out than the 99-04. i suffered just as much as you with headlight removal and installation. also as a side note, take it to a mechanic to adjust the headlights, i broke mine trying to adjust cuz theyre not as easy as the new models to do.

holy old thread!
but to properly install euros, place them on the counter first, grab large hammer of choice, smash repeatedly, place in garbage, you have now installed euro's on your garbage can; congrats. |
I know the hammer works well, but I prefer the freehand method. Merely smashing the housings against a brick wall or a concrete floor seems to work effectively. Its for those who prefer a more hands on DIY. Just remember to always eye protection.
|
There is also a long range method of install prep where you use your firearm of choice from a safe distance to avoid the debris
|
I have always thought that it was simply enough to install euro lights with a baseball bat. Tape the lights to the end and swing away. Thanks for the euro install tech, nice to see some people who know what there talking about.

You guys are too complex. I simply run them over with my car. Less physical work for me.

That could have very serious negative effects on your tires it's best to keep the euros as far from the mustang as possible at all times |
Even easier!
DON'T BUY THEM! |
Sorry misspelled buy.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THEM |
LOL. You should be able to look at the lights and figure it out. Older buics are even easier. They have two big nuts on the top that you unscrew and the light falls out.
