Headlight door installation
« on: October 11, 2015, 21:06:05 »
I tried putting my new US spec headlight door on today to no avail. I can see that there is a little clip on the top of the chrome frame on teh back side that secures the headlight door to the mount thats secured to the fender. However I can't get the little clip to sit in that hole. Any ideas. Also is there suposed to be a seal between the headlight door and the fender?

No seal on the US door.

Is either the clip or tab deformed? I am traveling and not able to shoot a snap of mine.

Thanks for the info. I was able to clip it onto the top and slightly pull it down over the headlight and push in to get it mounted.
