#1 of 1 Changing headlight assembly (Not the bulb) by gomezy3k Oct 08, 2008 (11:35 am)
1998 Chevy Tracker 4WD 2 Door Soft top I was driving down the freeway and a car just in front of me had a tire blow. It pulled over to side and I kept going. Later I saw a wheel weight sticking out of what was left of the glass in my passenger side headlight. I found a headlight assembly and bought it but need to get info on what I need to do to change the whole assembly. Do I take the whole front grill off? and what else do I need to change and then I presume I need to have the headlight aimed... This seems to be a major production LOL... I looked in a cheap "how to" manual but it doesn't have much on body work... Any online suggestions or how to suggestions. And I love my Tracker...wish they still made them...
