I found there is one screw still holding the windshield on, but I don't know how to get that black headlight cover off that sits on the windshield. If anybody knows how to do this please help me out. Thanks

- There are two pieces that screw in from the driver's side of the windshield - one on each side. Remove the philips screw from each and slightly twist them outwards while pulling on them.

- Remove the two nuts that hold on the new style rear view mirrors with a 10 mm open wrench (if you have them).

- Open the hood and using a large phillips screw driver remove the 3 screws that hold the headlight bezel in place. One is at the center, the other two are at the sides.

- The bezel will now be loose and you can carefully remove it. You need to push inwards on the windshield at each lower corner of the bezel to flex it away enough so the clips on the bezel don't scratch your hood. Take your time and make sure you don't scratch it - on and off.

That's it...

Here's a picture of the pieces:

Screws 5 and 13 have to be removed.
