Sup guys. I'm having a stupid issue and just thought I'd post to see if anyone else has had it. I have the push down clips for the headlights which is a cool feature for these trucks but the drivers side right one will NOT go down to clip the side of the light in. I've made sure it was pushed all the way in. It wont even clip in when I do that one first. Any ideas? Such a dumb but annoying issue lol.

had that problem on my 03 TB, i think both sides.
i took a long screwdriver, handle end on the clip, and hammered it (lightly) down into place.
you will need that long screwdriver and a block to pry it back up the next time you want to pull the light.

Both my passenger side clips are easy, and the drivers side one near the center of the truck. The other one under the fender is very hard to get up and down. I have to bust out some tools to get it to move either way, but it will eventually go.

I had that problem on my Envoy. I had pulled the handle up too far. :duh: There is a protrusion that's supposed to keep it from going up too far and out of the slot.
Remove the light assembly and push the handle down. It may take some taping with a hammer.

If you're replying to gsf1200m, he has a Trailblazer. They're a bit different than the Envoy.
