Default Changing Headlight bulb problem

I went to go change my headlight bulbs today and came across an issue. I removed all push pins and screws needed the move the liner, but for what ever reason I cannot get the liner moved out of the way to reach anything. No matter how hard I push, pull, or maneuver it will not get at the right angle to be moved out of the way.

Does anybody have any tips on doing this?

Nope won't help at all. The 250's are completely different than the F150's Thanks for trying though. I saw this video and searched all over and just can't find anything.

I know how to change them, I just have a problem with getting the liner out of the way and was wondering if anyone else had the same issues and how they over came this. Tomorrow I will be putting a level kit on so hopefully with the wheel off I can figure out a way.

I had the same issue. Had to remove the tabs and screws all the way around. The bigger tires didn't help for sure. Anyways, I had to remove all screws and tabs and essentially pull the liner nearly out. Once I removed the screws on the inside of the fender well (I think 4) I was able to move the liner enough to get up in there. I found it easiest to move the liner on the fender side up and out of the lip it's sits in. Then I had the room to move the front of the liner back towards the tire. I was able to get the liner back enough for my hands and a little room for viewing, that's it. In summary, yes mine was also a pain. Remove all the tabs and screws and take your time. You'll get it.

Sorry for rambling.
