ahahaha, Well the reason i hate them is *** i cant take them off. How can i take off my headlights. The reason i wanna take it off is *** my passanger headlight has a hole in it and my light bulds keep going out because of it. So i wanna replace it with a new headlight. Do anyone know the easiest way to take them off?

I believe you have to remove the entire front nose to get to the lights.

I have a pinhole in one of mine too. I just dapped some clear silicone on it and when it dired I skimmed if off so it only sealed the hole and not visable. Try it. Better than buying a new headlight. Is it a showcar? Are you a racer? A grassroots man would do this. Just think of yourelf as a rally driver improvising in the forest. :cool:

hahah silicone h'uh? i never thought of that, i always useto put som clear tape over the hole but some how it would come off..

But still the reason i wanna take it off to is to clean it. Because of that hole i've had so many bulbs bust on me and of all the bulbs busted theres glass pieces in my headlight ...... But once i clean it im use some silicone. Silicone is awsome, its given us such great things ;) ;)

How odd. I too have a hole in my passenger side headlight. I just used some resin to seal it. It's held up since.

If rust started to form from moisture getting in the headlight unit then maybe it would be better to replace the whole headlight. But it looks like replacing the headlight might be a bitch.

I had bb gun holes in both my headlights when i bought my NX, It is tough as hell to get the damn things out!!! I just took it in and got it done. It might cost more, but oh well. I think it cost around $250 for both new headlights plus installation.
