Head lamp bucket on an '86

[redcoupe86]

Is the headlamp bucket removable on an 86? I noticed that there is a bolt on the bottom. I don't have my Bentley yet so I don't want to go undoing bolts just yet.

So, if I read you question right, you've removed the trim and the headlight and are now looking at the M8 bolt down in the bucket. Am I right?

If so, that bolt is an attachment bolt for the fender assembly. The bucket itself is not removable, I believe.

Yep, thats the one. Too bad, there is a little rust I need to attend to in the crease between where the bucket meets the fender.

Any suggestions?
