No they do not
The headlight lens is held in with 1 bolt on the front inside end of the lens, and 2 retainer pins at the backside (pull straight up to remove). The Owners Manual has the steps and illustrations around page 37. See "Related Questions" below for free online Owners Manual
open your hood. remove the ligh bracket, trist left. pull out replace repeat.
If the "side lamp" is located in the headlamp lens assembly, check out the "Related Questions" below for lots of detailed help
1. Make sure headlamp is off and open hood. 2. Taurus model years 1990-1999: you must remove the whole headlamp to replace the bulb. Not a horrible task. Just annoying. 3. Facing the driver's side headlamp, and looking at the headlamp itself, at clock positions 8, 11 and 1 are the headlight housing screws. They all look the same. Using a 10mm socket wrench, remove these 3 screws and set them aside. 4. Just to the right of the "11 o'clock" housing screw is a bolt (same hexagonal 10mm sized top as the housing screws). This just needs a few turns to loosen it. 5. Gently pull the whole headlight forward. Now you can get at the bulb. 6. Disconnect the electrical connector from the bulb. Now the headlamp is free to work with. Remove the bulb, replace with a new bulb, make sure the bulb housing cylinder is in place and reconnect the electical. 7. Place headlamp back into position. Line up screw holes. Tighten the bolt. Replace housing screws and tighten. 8. Passenger side headlamp is mirror image of driver's side. Screws at 11, 1 and 4 o'clock positions. Bolt should be to the left of the "1 o'clock" housing screw.
You more than likely need to replace the headlight switch. Lights not going out when turned off is a symptom of a bad headlight switch.
Try the "Related Question" below for the procedure covering the later "first generation" Taurus/Sables.Those should work well to getting the lens/cover disconnected from the grill.
Pop the hood and get to the backside of the lamp in question. There will be an electrical dongle screwed into the back of the lamp unit. Disconnect, and carefully pull the old bulb out. Simply pop out the burned bulb, plug in a new one. When re-seating the bulb, make sure to tighten the screw assembly otherwise water could leak in and short your new bulb. The headlight unit must be removed to replace the bulbs, not enough room to get your hand in behind the bulb sockets. 1. Make sure headlamp is off and open hood. 2.

The three attachment points contain long adjustment screws, much smaller then 5mm. At the end of each screw, closest to the radiator, are rubber plugs held in place with metal clips. Remove the metal clips and the headlight assembly pulls almost straight out. These attachment points are all plastic and easily broken by those not knowing how to remove the headlight unit.

The headlight relay on a 1998 Ford Taurus SE is in the fuse box in the interior of the vehicle. It is at location #22 and is a 30 Amp fuse.
Depends on the model year. See "Related Questions" below for more about the first few generations of Taurus/Sables
It appears there are 3 small bolts (10mm(?) that hold the headlight assembly in place. Remove those and the entire headlight will come out - that will make access to the bulb a whole lot easier!Twist the collar-type retainer on the back of the headlamp to release the bulb socket - pull straight out.NOTE: Do not touch the glass of the new halogen bulb - the oils in the skin will shorten the life-span of the new bulb.Also - there are instructions and diagrams for this in the Owner's Manual that came with the car - See "Related Questions" for free online copy of the Owners ManualAnswerunder the hood you reach under the front cowling behind the headlight and gently pull the connector off (don't pry up on it or it will break) and then twist the ring holding it in and your set. Unbolting the battery on the drivers side and moving it in helps also. Just don't unbolt anything on the headlight or alignment can be off. Answerif it is the light bulb that needs changing then open the hood and behind the light fixture there will be a wire going into the fixture. at the end of the wire there is a rubber insulator connected to the fixture turn that counter clockwise and pull it out, and the connection should come out the bulb will be in the connection. then just simply replace and put it back in. if the fixture is broken then you will have to take it to a mechanic.
