: can not take out the headlights. dork 05-10-2006, 05:15 PM I spent couple of hours on my headlights already and i could not remove the bolts in the back of the lights. I get cut on all my fingers and bang my head twice and still no result. Is there a trick to it? Thanks. Tri wanna92se-r 05-10-2006, 05:22 PM B14? if so then dont feel bad, they are kinda tricky.the bolts that mount the headlights are in cheap plastic part of the housing that probly broke just like all the b14s i have ever had.if you are replaceing them then just cut the bolts with a dremel.if not then you could try moving them back and forth untill they pull through the holes and then just bend the holes back so you could re-install later.that is what i did when i removed them.good luck XxToKeSxX 05-10-2006, 05:39 PM OH GOD, don't remind me... Try this, but it might not help I took my time for 3 different occassions on 3 different days...They are a Beeeotch. I ended up removing some stuff so I was able to manuever a little better, Nope... Ended up purcahsing ratchet extensions... Nope... Took my time, Nope... Duesched them with PB Blaster & WD40... The two bolts on the inside of the lights that face the engine were all seized and rusted... I had to cut them because they just wouldn't budge. I have a lot of patience, but even I couldn't deal with these... Theres your trick homie :) 2dr_sentra 05-10-2006, 08:54 PM 10mm wrench :biggthump coolblackser 05-10-2006, 10:50 PM 10mm deep well 1/4" drive with 5" Sears ratchet worked for me. Careful when bolts are off and you are prying to get the sucker out, sheet metal is verey thin.

My Sentra lights came out easy though. jlee1469 05-11-2006, 02:01 AM Mine needed to be cut off as well. Go Nissan engineering! dskorcz 05-11-2006, 11:18 PM I had to cut my right side head lights out with a hand saw because the bolts were all cross threaded. As for the left it came out with just a deep socket 10mm wrench.
