kevink Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 i thought this may come in handy for future reference.i remember looking for pics like this for ages, now i have them myself so i thought i'd better share there you go!to swap them is pretty easy i must say. forgot to make detailed pictures! but here is the step by step explanation:-Undo lightclips, like when replacing bulbs-Remove indicator by unscrewing top lil screw and pulling it the indicator forward. (the indicator is connected at the bottom with a pin in a hole (#1 on picture))-undo bolt with spanner(10mm)(#2 on picture)-the headlight is now still connected on 2 spots(#3 & #4)-on spot #3 to loosen, you have to lift the light-on spot #4 to loosen, you have to move headlight towards the indicatorside(this is the reason you need to remove indicator, you need the space)-both spot 3 and 4 should come loose at the same time.thats about it you have the headlights loose now.hope its off any use!- Link to post Share on other sites

I just had to replace a headlight for the MOT and your post saved much head scratching, as I cannot find a workshop manual for the Starlet. I'm used to 1960's cars- modern stuff is a mystery- so your diagram was excellent help.Cheers a bunch!John Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Was just taking off the headlights so I could get to the adjustment servo or whatever it is (it's loose ), and Dad found out that there's no need to undo the bolt at location 2, the headlight unit just pops off in the same manner as 3 and 4.
