Removing SC300 Headlights + Identifying Tail Lights ?
Hey all,
I was wondering, I want to remove my left headlight to take it off, wetsand and buff it up, i have all the materials etc etc. I was just wondering, I know there is a bolt on the top of the headlight that u remove, but there is also one around the side as im guessing... how do i get to this one ? Do i need to remove the side panel of the car or can i get to it from underneath ?
That was the first part...
Now the second... I have two tail lights sitting in my trunk that came with the car. I like the ones that are on the car now and seeing as I have the other two im looking at selling / swapping them for something else that I may choose for the car. So i was wondering, how do I identify what model / year the tail lights are from as they are different to the ones currently on my car....
Any help on either is appreciated...

I can help with the second part
92-94 - Amber on top half and red on bottom half
95-96 - Red on top. Bottom half clear with colored inserts on the inside of the light
97-00 - Chrome borders around the different sections of lights.
Sorry I can't give you a better description of the 97-00 lights. I haven't owned one of them yet.

Helpful hint for taking the 2 bolts off the headlight in the fender. Use a deepwell socket and a small socket driver. It will save you a lot of time and energy as I found out.
