Hi all, was just looking for some advice on what the best way is to reach the access panel located in the wheel wells? I'm going to be replacing my headlight assemblies on Friday, so I need to be able to get in there to unscrew the bottom screws holding them in place. Can you just turn the wheel to one side to gain access, or does it require putting the vehicle on a lift?

Thanks in advance!

 

Turniing the wheel does give you accesss but, you can't see what you are doing very well without removeing the wheel.

If you can do it by "feel" you should be able to access the bolts with the right size tool.

 

Thanks, I appreciate it. A lift will be available, I just wanted to make sure there wasn't an easier way before raising it up and removing wheels.

They really didn't make anything on this car easy to get to, did they? Haha.

 

Personally I removed the whole wheel well to remove mine. You might have better luck, I'd also like to remind you that you should un screw the two torx screws that hold the bumper to the wing. This will give you some wiggle room to remove the headlight assembly.

 

Hmm, good to know... Where exactly are those located on the bumper?

This will be the first time I've had the Crossfire on a lift or done anything more than basic work on it, so I'm sure I'll be in for a treat...

 

Hmm take your time and try not to get frustrated. The two screws are located just aft of the door, damn near directly above the turn signal indicator.
