Removing 986 Headlights
Hey everyone,
Does anyone know if its hard to remove the headlights in a 986 Boxster? I'm tinting the orange at the bottom of the headlight and want to remove it to make sure I don't get the tint on the paint. Thanks

check your owner's manual it has directions... there is a tool in your tool case in the car its L shaped... you open the front hood use the tool and it pops the headlights out a little bit... check your manual for directions...

just be careful putting them back in... you can break off the plastic runners pretty easily.

For me it's always easy to take them out, now putting them back in is a bit more difficult.
