I'm about to replace the headlamp housings on my truck. From what I can tell they just push into a socket and a clip holds them in. Could someone who has removed them before let me know if this is correct or not.

BTW- They cost $73 a piece from my local dealer for those wanting to know. It's the headlamp housing, new bulb, and it has already been leveled out. The sales guy said you just push them in and wire it up.

I had to do that with my passenger's side headlamp. Not too bad. Just some patience. Remove the grill and then the red bezel around the lights. It won't remove completely because it'll be attached to the turnsignal lamp if I remember right, but you can kinda pull it away and push it aside. It's been a while since I've done this so I'm trying to remember. The lights are not already level. You do that once they are installed. They don't just clip in. You have to unscrew the present one out, takes a while because the dang screw things are so freakin' long, and install the new one the same way. Then level it out using a garage door as a background or something like a wall, etc. If you need more help I can try to look at the truck again and see exactly what I did.
