Headlight disassembly??

Anyone taken a 3rd Gen Ram headlight appart. Need to remove the 2 adjusters bolts and clean the corrosion from the threads. Adjusters are attached to the back with 2 screws. Met with resistance when I took the screws out and tried to slide the adjuster out of the assembly. All tips greatly appreciated.

Thanks Carl48. Dug through my junk and found a headlight I crunched hitting a cow a couple of months ago. Agree with you, the thing has to come apart from front to back. No other way.

Take a look at this thread. I believe it's just what you're looking for, and a little more. https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...ack+headlights
