The Dude Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Help, the passenger side headlight head light housing is about 2/3 full of water. I guess it's remove, reseal, and re-install. Does the bumper front cover need to be removed? Thank you. Edited July 22, 2017 by The Dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 no, you should not need to remove the bumper cover.. grille, most likely will need to be removed attached is the FSM page for my 2002 Forester, yours may be a little different, but it should give you a general idea.

Since they eliminated the small removable panel just below the lights. The bumper skin includes the grill too. I would buy a new fixture. That year range is known for problems with this.
