A) Turn the headlights on... they will pop up, then flip the switch back to "park", and they will stay up. Leave ignition "on".

OR

B) Take the rubber cover off the actuator, and turn the **** to raise the headlight manually.

OR

C) Viagra

After you "get it up" you will need to take the screws out of the sides of the black plastic "surround" and remove it to access the headlight mounting scews.

If you want to do it with power to the lights just flip them up and take off the little screws to on the engine side of the housing and then t should just pop right out and undo the wiring harness.

With the power off you have to take off those rubber covers on the little poles next to the lights and crank them to raise the lights then undo the same bolts.

I'm pretty sure thats hows its all done. Good Luck
