April 30, 200420 yr comment_79157 The headlight assembly is removed from the underside of the fender.Easiest way is to jack up the front for clearence around the wheels.

May 1, 200420 yr comment_79179 Normally, you can replace the headlight bulbs from the top front of the car-the retainer rings are loosened with a #1 phillips screwdriver (don't take the screws out-just loosen them a few turns), then the ring is rotated a few degrees and comes out, allowing the bulb to follow it. This works, but be vewwy careful of your paint!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11512-new-headlights/#findComment-79179 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 1, 200420 yr comment_79205 Too cold to drive a Z with no heat? What are you thinking? It gets Cold here in GA too-at least when we open the freezer!Now you know what a "Snowbird" is...Check your fluid level, check the valve under the dash-what year is the Z? If you have factory EFI, you could have a vacuum leak, probably at the vacuum valves on the pass.side of the Eng. compartment.With that car, giving a ride to someone warm and soft should not be a problem! Then you might even have to roll down the window!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11512-new-headlights/#findComment-79205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 1, 200420 yr Author comment_79216 i have a 71. it has never had heat since the day i bought it. it was earlly spring last year, and i had to drive it a hundred miles down the highway. cold cold cold! the only heat we got was from the exhaust header leak. well if you want to know what the weather is like up here right now, just open that freezer get in and shut the door.
