As I need to address the rusty reflectors of my headlights, how do I remove the headlight rims to get in there? I can see holes in the bottom of the rims but have no clue how to remove them.

Assuming they are the same or similar to my 38, there should be a screw in that hole. Remove the screw, pull the bottom forward a bit to clear the housing and lift it up.

Glad you got it. Wouldn't it be a lot easier if we were all born knowing how to do everything? laugh
