did change out your headlights? If so, where did you get them?
I did change the headlights as well as the rear taillights. I purchased them from The Retroshop. The taillights are plug and play. I also purchased H11 cool white LED bulbs for the fog lamps. They match the headlights perfectly.

I've seen that video but he only shows whats going on after the fact. I was hoping to find one of the actual process. I'm trying to release the clips holding onto the corner fascia pieces but I'm afraid to break something.


I did the following to remove the fascia pieces.

I used an interior trim tool to separate the fascia from the fender by sliding it between them and lightly pushed the fascia downward to separate from the fender .
At the same time, I took the palm of my hand and lightly pushed the fascia from the inside, straight out and the clips released with out damage
I then pulled the fascia outwards 90 degrees as if it was on a hinge at the grill . I did not attempt to release the fascia from the grill.
This exposes the the three bolts holding the grille in place and I removed the grille with the fascias attached.
At this point the fascia can be disconnected from the grill with no damage.
Let me know if you need more info.
