Default AEV Bumper - Replacing lights

How much of a pain is it to replace main headlights with the bumper on with a winch. Seems like the grill has almost no tolerance to move once the screws come out and will have to be bent to pull a headlight out.


Anyone have experience ?

You have to loosen the bolts holding the bumper. For the future though you could always trim the tabs off the bottom of the grill so that you don't need it to pull away from the body at the bottom.

This is true of most winch bumpers since they tend to place the winch up tight against the grille.
