Re: how to remove the headlights
Remove screws from and remove headlight bezel. Remove screws from around edge on headlamp bulb retaining ring...one edge is held with a spring. Lift back retaining ring from side opposite of the spring and then remove bulb.

I had the real deal yellow high beams in mine, but took them out for more cleaner look with the stock T3s . But if you can't find stained glass paint. Duplicolor makes yellow Metalcast that works the same.
