Removing the headlight assemblies???

[GreenMachine72]

Hey fellow Sonic owners,
How do you remove the headlight assemblies? I want to replace mine with new projector assemblies and I want to remove the factory GM complete headlight assemblies. How do I do that?

Thanks!

You actually have to remove the bumper to do so, but it's not hard to do it.

Here's the instructions, once you have the bumper off you'll see the bolts that hold the lights in place.

Be careful not to break the tabs on each side....

Be careful

it's not the size, it's how you drive it....

Yeah just be careful lol. Kind of push up on the bumper, then you should be able to slowly and gently pull off the bumper.

You don't.
You just break them off. On your brand new car. And then you drink. And cry. A lot.
