Wondering what is involved in removing the nose panel on an 85? Any info appreciated. I am speaking of the panel located between the headlights, hood, and front bumper.

 

Not much, you will have a struggle with the bolts around the lights, just look for 10mm bolts and keep pullin them till it comes off. There are some under by the tow points.
Have fun.

 

No headlight, hood, or fender removal needed huh?

 

2 bolts on each side, raise the headlights, work from underneath. One at each long end bolting to the fenders. The others are in a row at the forward side of the top radiator shroud.

 

Fenders need to be loosened, the bumper is easy to pulloff, 2 large bolts and the bumper light connections and I think some vinyl needs to be popped off. I'll take you 60 minutes your first time. The lights will bust your knuckles.

 

Okay, Thanks!
