Hi all, i just need to know how to remove the chrome plastic pieces that surround the headlights, and on top of the corners of my Aussie 85 240. (Single big headlights- not the dual ones)

They appear to be screwed in at the back, but no chance of getting a screwdriver in there.. I need to paint them, and i dont want to damage anything

Cheers
Chris

No drama mate (something I picked up working in Melbourne last fall; your spring).

I don't have a 240 anymore, but mine had plastic half turn fasteners at the top (open hood and top front of car frame in front of light assembly). Once these removed, pulled up on unit so bottom pins lift out of lower frame and that was it. Perhaps this single unit is different.

Cheers,

Gary
