Mustang Headlights ('99-'04) - Installation Instructions

Headlight Removal:

1. Locate the 2 retention clips on the headlight assembly.

This bulb will be re-used on the new headlights.

3. Reattach the wiring for the yellow light first.

4. Then reattach the wiring for the main headlight.

5. Gently slide the headlight back into position. This may take some manipulation to get the brass alignment pins to seat. Once the brass alignment pins are seated in the matching holes on the mustang body. Gently push the headlight into position and replace the first retention clip.

6. While maintaining slight pressure on the face of the headlight, install the second retention clip.

7. The driver's side headlight is now installed. Repeat this procedure for the passenger side.
