Removing drivers side headlight

[Stangshcky12]

So I took out the weather strip clip and three torx heads and can not get it out

I'm yanking on it as hard as can and even got a pry bar out and still couldn't get it out

Am I missing a bolt or is that clip that much of a *****?

That damn clip is a PITA...I had to pry mine out of the clip with a screwdriver...after I got it out, I yanked them damn plastic pieces that the clips slip into out of the fender...

 

[SmokedRam]

Wait...is this on a gen2 or gen3? I was assuming you were working on a gen3

oh I know what your talking about now, I have this problem a lot too. I just keep wigglin it for a while and it eventually comes out, but it sounds like yours is pretty stuck lol. I still dont get what keeps it in there...

What a pain

I can't get to the clip at all because of the intercooler and I didn't notice the top of the light was hangin up on the backside of the fender too

I ended up yankin on it hard enough to break the entire clip off, locally my moms car was behind me to cushion my head instead of the ground

No idea how this ended up in the second gen section either...
This is the second time in a week or two that it has happened to me too

if you broke the clip, let me know. I think I have a few here.
