I'm planning to repaint my morretes this weekend, just looking to find out if I can take the front casing off but leave the headlights in place..

Need to use the car over the weekend so cant just take them right out..

Cheers for any info...

you need to remove the whole unit to take the covers off. bumper can stay on, no need to remove it.

some people use the lower brackets to attatch the lights, these are tricky to get to sometimes.

You can't get the lights on with the bumper in place very easily, but you can't get the bumper on with the lights in place very easily. It's possibly the most annoying situation ever

Hmmm, probably doesn't help that all the lights I have had to fit have been Depos or those clear ones on bloody fibreglass bumpers. I just think the Corsa design for fitting the bumpers is a bit shit, fitting a Lupo bumper is a breeze though
