    I know this may sound dumb, I feel silly not being able to figure it out. but I have a 1950 chevy coupe and I need to aim my headlights, how do I remove the trim? I can rock it left to right a little and pry it out some also, I don't want to mess it up by ripping it off.

    Slide up? I don't see how it can slide up with the headlight still inside of it.

    From memory (to lazy to go look at mine...) should be a screw at the bottom of the trim ring, remove screw, pull bottom of ring out and lift up

    You have to pull it out a little at the bottom to get around the headlight.
