I am trying to remove my headlight for polishing and one of the two nuts is rusted onto it's bolt in such a way as to spin both the nut and the bolt effectively doing nothing to help get my headlight out.

I understand there is something broken on the inside of the headlight assembly which is no longer holding the bolt in place firmly enough to spin the nut loose. So I was wondering if there are any tricks to removing it now that it's spinning and if there are any more than the two easily visible nuts I need to loosen to get the headlight out?

thanks,

jack
