I'm not sure if this is applicable to your model truck or not. Here's how it's done on many Ford products:


1. Remove mounting bolt near the front grille (8 mm).

2. Pry up both retaining slides (look for two rubber-coated tabs), located on the rear of the headlight housing, with a screwdriver.

3. Pull the housing outward, disconnect the electrical connector from the headlamp bulb, and remove the housing from the vehicle.

4. Remove and replace the headlamp and amber turning signal, after cleaning the connectors with WD-40.

5. Button things up.

6. Adjust headlamps with the vehicle parked level, gas tank half full, and nothing in the truck.
