Okay so I am replacing my headlight assembly and I was able to pull it out however I can't seem to figure out the process on putting it back in?!? What is the trick to slind the new headlamp in place?
Ive been looking around and all videos/tutorials seem to be for a 98+ or a 1st gen
Thanks

Then, pivot the inside facing side of the headlight toward the radiator, and it should meet up with the bracket on the radiator support and with the headlight bracket.

Slide the outside facing side of the headlight (shown attached) into the fender first, so that the threaded stud goes into the hole in the fender and the lower part of the bracket rests on the headlight bracket below it
Then, pivot the inside facing side of the headlight toward the radiator, and it should meet up with the bracket on the radiator support and with the headlight bracket.
