grill guards & replacing headlights?

[gbraden]

Have any of you that have grill guards on their trucks had to change headlight bulbs? If so, did you have to remove the grill guard so as to pull out the headlight assembly?

I'm wanting to get a grill guard but I do wonder if it can also cause problems (such as when changing a headlight bulb).

I think the headlamp bulbs are removed from inside the engine compartment, so there shouldn't be any problem with a grill guard being there.

Nope. You have to pull the assembly from the outside. There are three screws and then you pull it straight out.

I have a manik grill guard which has the tilt forward option. I can get my headlight assembly out in this position to change the bulbs. coobie

I had an '03 and I installed Silverstars and I did it from the inside. The Drivers side is a bear... .

Maybe you are not wrong Ryan. . Some folks tell me if you have small enough hands you can get to the bulbs from the back,I tried like heck and ended up pulling the headlight assembly out. :{ coobie
