Hyundai Repair: 2004 Hyundai Tiburon GT - Removing headlight cover?, 2004 hyundai tiburon, plastic retainers


Question
I need to replace the left "low" beam on my 2004 Tiburon GT... I do see the instructions in the manual on how to do this once inside - my problem is getting there.

The GT (V6 engine) has covers on most everything, including the engine, and apparently the headlight assembly too. There are two bolts that are on top, I remove them, and try to pull off the cover - it's a no-go. I try straight up-and-off, backwards, press in then pull up, pretty much everything I can think of. The headlight cover won't budge.

The question is... what's the trick?

Thanks in advance for any reply,

Steve

Answer
I think there are about six plastic retainers and one 10mm bolt.  The plastic retainers should have what looks like a Phillips screw head on them.  (If the cover has been removed previously, all of the retainers may not have been put back).  Once you snap out the positive battery terminal cover and remove all the retainers and the screw, the cover should come off easily.
