headlight assembly

[Guest 05thumpinpathy]

i got a quick question to anyone who might know the answer...i have seen a couple pathfinders which have taken out the reflectors from the headlight assembly over the turn signals i was wondering if anybody knew how to go about removing the whole assembly i know how to get all the bolts except the one on the bottom i have tried swivels everything i cant even reach it...if someone could just throw me a tip or maybe have done it that would be greatly appreciated...remember this is the 05 pathfinder which is completly different from the 04...thnx again...

If you tried everyway to get them out and still can't...that means you missed one way!!! But really that just means you were looking way too hard at getting them out...remember Nissan and Honda are the kings at making stuff easy to take apart try looking at a more simple route, as if you never had a swivel joint and what not!! Honestly it has helped me more than once just to look at the problem a different way!

 

I have baked open lights before to change things inside, every manufact. is different one thing is for certain...the glue will be like sticky mozzerella cheese. The only variable is just how sticky and how hot you need to bake them open, start at about 120 deg for like 10 mins. Keep an eye on the housing as you dont want it to melt into a new shape. I found (for sure) that taking time to get them open is always better in the long run than trying to bust them open at high temps and have them sag from the heat of get ms-colored or whatever....good luck and way to mod your ride!!!!!
