The one I am replacing came out easy because it was cracked in several places. It is one solid piece and I can't get the new one to fit. Do I have to take the grill out?How do I install a headlight on a 2006 Ford Mustang?On a 2006 Mustang there are no clips on the backside of the headlamp assembly. In order to remove/install the headlamp assembly you have to remove the front bumper cover first by removing the 6 pin-type retainers on the radiator sight shield (that black thing on the top). Then remove the 2 upper front bumper cover bolts. Remove the 6 screws connecting the front bumper cover to the fender splash shields. (If you have a valance panel you will need to remove those 6 screws as well.) Position the splash shields aside and remove the 4 other bumper cover nuts on the reinforment supports. Disconnect all lamp electrical connectors and you have just removed the front bumper cover. Once that nightmare is over. You can now remove the pushpin and bolt on the top of the headlamp assembly as well as the two bolts below the headlamp assembly. Reverse the procedure to install the new one. Hope this helps.

on the back of the headlight you will see a place for 2 clips. look at your broken headlight (the part probably still in the car ) you will see 2 clips that slide down pull the clips out and the rest of the broken headlight will come out. now put your new headlight back in and put the slide down clips back in. or just take it to your local bodyshop and they will help you. most bodyshops will peform this serv for free or next to nothing
