As with all 6GC's my headlight rubber on my right side low beam lens has begun to fall out. I have tried to spread a bit of silicone on it and slip it back over the light, but that didn't hold. I want to pull the whole lens out but I'm not quite sure how they are supposed to come out. I've got the bolt from behind the turn signal, and whatever I can find up top, and it feels loose, but it doesn't come out. Do I have to move the fender or bumper? Does it just slide out? What am I missing?

Thanks it advanced!

as long as you have one clip at the top of each headlight holding the rubber seal, that's good enough. the other clips only hold the glass lens on the headlamp housing. the rest of the rubber seal is glued on and the main reason the seals tend to loosen or come off is because of having the pressure washer nozzle from the carwash pointed too close to the headlamps which ends up forcing the seal off the factory glue that was holding it in.

i'm in the middle of refinishing my projectors and when all is assembled back together, i'm gonna glue that MF in like there's no tomorrow!
