Hell yea
I think it looks alot better with out it.
This can only be done on 98-00 contours.
Just unscrew the three screws holding the light in.
Then pull out the bulbs (High Beam, Low Beam, Park)
Then once u have the headlight all the way out look where the reflector is and there are three lil spots that hold the reflector in.
Use a 1/4 Drill bit and drill in those three spots from the back of the headlight of course.
Then once u have the three wholes drilled u can see where the relector is held in. Just use a lil flat head screw driver and pop the relector loose.
Then shake it around till it gets near the hole where the high beam is and use somt tin shear cutters to cut up the relector then shake all the broken pieces out threw the hole.
Then just clean out the light and put it back in
Took me 20 minutes.
Oh yea and make sure to RTV the holes that u drilled in the back of the light.
LOL
