How do I remove the headlights and the guard on my 96 2.2

Hello, I have a 96 2.2L and I'm wondering how I remove the headlights. I can't seem to get the shield off. How do I do that? Thanks!

the little "shield" that goes from fender to fender under the hood removes once you take out the little push pins holding it in..

use a small pair of needle nose pliers to get under the center button of the push pin,pull it up,once thats done the whole push pin pulls out.. I believe there are six of them... then the shield can pull out, once thats outta the way you can get to both of the screws/bolts holding the headlamps in, to take those out you need a 13mm socket..

you will need to lift the head lights up a little before they pull out of the fender/bumper area, there is a plastic peice that extends off the back of the housing that slides into a small hole that keeps it in place.., hope that helps, if i missed anything Im sure someone will clear it up for ya.
