How do you replace the Headlight bulb in a 2000 subaru impreza?

I wanted to changed my headlights to white lights in my 2000 Subaru Impreza RS but i don't know how. I unplug the power to the bulb but cant get the bulb itself out of the light mount. I can touch the three prongs where you plug the power into but it won't budge. Do i have to take the whole light housing out? Give me instructions please-

The rubber thing is covering the clips. Pull the rubber off and you'll find the clips under it.

Look for a retainer spring just below where the power connector is located. If you can remove the retainer spring, the bulb holder will be easy to remove.

Can't believe changing a headlight (2005 Acura RSX) is this hard, but....?

Every book at AutoZone/Wal Mart that I've looked at has given me part numbers to L shaped headlights. meaning, the bulb points up and the prongs point to the side.



When I pulled the old bulb out, the bulb points up and the prongs point down.





the prongs are the same, and it appears like the L shaped bulb would somewhat fit, but I figured I'd ask around before opening the new bulb and trying it.





If anybody can lend some advice I'd appreciate it.

And if I need to answer any questions, I'll be glad to if it will help get me answers




Can't believe changing a headlight (2005 Acura RSX) is this hard, but....?
Vehicle has two bulbs, high beam (9005) and low beam (H1). The H1 is straight with a metal tab for the connection, the 9005 is L shaped and the connector is plastic.

I also checked with an Acura OEM replacement website and it shows the L shaped 9005 bulb as factory. Someone may have put a 9005XS bulb in it's place either because they bought the wrong bulb, or wanted to be different. Here is a link to the headlamp assembly:

I went to this link http://www.autopartswarehouse.com and found this number. Part # sy-h1st looks like you may have the wrong part. Hope this helps.
Its all about the details.



A 9005 bulb is the regular style with the L bend connector, a 9005XS is in-line. Just ask the guy at the parts store counter for a straight 9005 and if s/he is remotely competent they will set up up with the right stuff.

How on Earth do you change the headlight in an 03 Chevy S-10??

There is a steel plate behind the headlight assembly which makes it virtually impossible to access the twist thingy that holds the halogen headlamp. What am I missing?

you may find either a piece of plastic or metal that will slide up and allow you to move the headlamp assembly forward and out so that you can get access to the bulb.

I may be wrong, but there should be 2- 7mm headed bolts sticking up that you remove. They kinda look like maybe they are to adjust it, but look close and you'll see the adjustment bolt 'way further down. Pulling the 2 bolts lets the whole %26quot;bucket' come out

    How to change a headlight?

    The headlight burned out on the driver's side of my '96 Toyota Corolla. Does anyone know how to change it? Does the battery need to be removed? We tried removing a couple of screws to detach the lamp from the car, but that didn't work. It looks like there may be a couple of bolts that require a wrench to remove them - do those need to be taken off? This is quite frustrating! Help!

    You don't have to change the headlight, reach inside the

    hood, and just change the %26quot;bulb.%26quot; unless the headlight itself

    is broken.

    If you need the whole headlight changed. Let a specialist do

    it, because, it has to be %26quot;alligned properly.%26quot; As not to shine in

    the other drivers %26quot;eyes.%26quot; It is a safety issue.%26quot; %26lt;}:-})
    shouldnt be that hard surely ? most headlights bulbs just twist and pull (in a plastic unit) from the back of the headlight ???
    Usually the lamps stay intact, and the lights pull inward. Look for the wire from under the hood, and see if there's something you can do to pull whatever the wire hooks up to out of the headlight and into the under the hood area.
    I don't Know that's a hard Question
    You should be able to change the bulb without having to remove the whole headlight unit.

    There should be a round rubber seal at the back or plastic cover

    Once these are removed you should be able to see the bulb and retaining clip.

    And there is no need to disconnect the battery while you do it.
    If you still have your owner's manual, it's definitely in there. (Very funny, a couple weeks ago, we changed the headlight to my boyfriend's -- surprise -- '96 Toyota Corolla, and we used the manual.) Unfortunately, I can't remember all the details, but I'll tell you what I do recall.



    The right (passenger side) headlight is very easy to change. You just have to unhook the cable/wire leading to the headlight, twist the bulb to unlock it, pull it out, put the other one in, twist to secure, rehook the cable, and you're set. The left (driver side) one, however, requires you to take out a part -- air filter, perhaps. It's not difficult, just requires more work. If the bolts you're referring to are on the inside of the front of the car, no, you don't have to unscrew them.

    How do i change the headlight in a 1998 mercedes c280?

    i know the assembly is removed from the rear of the headlight housing. Do i remove the air filter intake or remove the headlight housing? If either, how?

    Thanks.
    How do i change the headlight in a 1998 mercedes c280?
    it can be done without removing anything...it's just a pain....if you choose to remove one of the two,go for the air filter housing....it's allot easier....do not mess with the head light assembly,they are a little tricky and you could scratch the car....
    How do i change the headlight in a 1998 mercedes c280?
    It really depends on the size of your hands. If you have smaller hands, getting in and accessing the bulb is relatively easy compared to if you have larger hands. Yes, you can remove the air filter intake and the top of the air filter housing if that makes it easier for you but it may not be necessary.



    As noted above, do not remove the entire housing. The back of the housing is plastic and if anything breaks, you have to buy a complete assembly as the housing only is not available separately.

    How to change a headlight?
    The bulb you picked up should be a 9006, This bulb is changed from under the hood. Go to the side that is burned out and unplug the three wire connector, you will have to push back a lock tab to do this. Then unscrew the ring that holds the bulb into the composite headlamp assembly. Don't touch the glass of the new bulb, If you do, clean it with a aolchol wipe. Push your new bulb in (It will only go in one way) screw on the ring and reconnect the wires
    How to change a headlight?
    check the owners manual. if you dont have one lift up the hood and look behind the headlight you should see where the plug is going into the housing. Normally it take just a little turn and it will pop out. then change the bulb, put light back in the housing and close hood. all done
    Open hood and dislocate the plastic cover over the headlamp. Then pry the lock tab on the electrical connector up a little, but don't break it. Then unscrew the holder or depress and rotate the holder depending on what type you have and the bulb just pops out.

    I'm not certain about your model, but most newer cars have headlamp access by opening the hood and reaching in behind the headlight housing. DO NOT touch the replacement bulb with your bare fingers. The oil on your skin will make it overheat and burn out prematurely.

    You just gotta pull really hard, they are made so they hang in there during drive.
    i've just changed the bulbs for my friend's 03 lancer yesterday. Just forget about what the owner's manual says. the book doesn't tell the exact instructions(I threw mine out, I also own a 03 lancer)you have to do it yourself. Now, stick your hand in there. there's a clip that is connected to headlight, unclip it from the headlight. twist(don't pull it hard like what others are telling you) the piece that holds the bulb to the left and you'll feel the click and pull it out. this should take you about 5 minutes to complete the job.Hope this helps.

    Why would I have to change the headlight in my car so often?
    Not sure about your car but my camaro, would switch headlights, i would put one in and the other one would blow and this continued until i found out when you replace head lights make sure you disconnect the battery.I dont know if this will help you but its worth a try.
    Had the same problem on my Corolla. Not sure was it was but a couple of things to consider. Wear a latex glove so that your skin doesn't touch the bulb. Skin oil can diffuse through the quartz into the bulb and oxidize the filament causing it to burn out. Also, the light should be clean and dry. If there is a leak moisture could be getting into the light. Another problem may be a bad connection causing the bulb to see higher than normal voltage and burn out early. This needs an electrical check by a good auto electrician.
    Sounds to me like you have an electrically system problem. My 1999 Nissan Sentra was doing the same thing plus my headlights would randomly shut off while I was driving! Anyway go to a mechanic that you can really trust and have them check your electrically system. All they do is plug some machine into your car and it pin points what the problem is. Good luck!

    Take the wheel off the side with the burnt out bulb. Next pull the 6 plastic rivets out of the front fender well shield. Take the screw out of the shield above the 3 rivets along the inside of the fender edge, Pull the shield back starting at the top where it's tucked under the back portion of the liner shield. Unscrew the top plastic cover, twist the connector counter clockwise and pull it off the bulb. Then unclip the bulb and pull the bulb out noting the groove position for reinstalling the new bulb in the housing.

    There is nothing simple about your bulb change. The dealer price of the bulb is around $245.00.

    Don't break the new bulb trying to guess when it's seated properly!
    Go to the dealer, ask about the service. Make friends with a technician that will do it on the side, or get a referral for an infiniti tech from another owner. It will save you 50% or more of the dealer cost and you don't run the risk of doing it wrong.

    What is the best HID headlight for my car?

    I have a 2001 ford f150. I have seen a few cars with the headlights changed in them. I tried doing the same for mine and bought some 5900k bulbs. they are pretty cool but they are kinda blue and not as bright as i thought. I have seen some really bright white ones but I do not no what temperature (color, 5900k is what mine is now) to choose because many people have said different things but i want the really bright white ones.



    thanks
    What is the best HID headlight for my car?
    I really like 4300k. Its very bright and almost pure white. with no blue tint.

    4300k is actually the brightest color at around 3200 lumens, the higher you go in kelvin (COLOR TEMP) they will put out less lumens.

    Xentec, phillips, etc are great kits. Do yourself a favor and get a high quality kit from the start. When I first got into these lights I went through 2 poor quality kits from ebay before finding a great kit.

If you really want to know how, go read some auto manuals on how to do it by yourself books.

    1. Unplug the electrical connector in the rear.

    2. There's a plastic ring that you rotate counterclockwise and pull straight off the back.

    3. Pull the bulb straight out the back of the headlight assembly.

    4. Install the new bulb, making sure that you press the bulb in firmly so that the o-ring is fully seated. And make sure you don't touch the glass with your fingers. If you do, clean it off with rubbing alcohol.

    5. Replace the lock ring

    6. Plug in the new bulb.

    I would not spend money to buy a book if you can't even figure out how to get to your bulb.



    Take a screw driver and start unscrewing all the screws that's behind the headlight you want to change.

    How to completely change a headlight on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am GT?
    So what exactly is the probelm if the bulbs don't light the actual headlights are the bulbs, you asking about the headlight assembly or housing which has a reflector and casing and lens. And no the above user is wrong its called a compostie halogen bulb not sealed beam. So again if they niether turn on check wiring, fuse and ten headlight switch, you only need to change the assembly if the reflector or lens are really damaged or scratched or broken.
    How to completely change a headlight on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am GT?
    back of bottle plastic screw thing-ee under hood
    Your car has a sealed beam headlight assembly, meaning you only have to replace the bulb itself.

    1. Raise your hood, 2. there should be a piece of plastic that is over the top of your headlight, either remove it or move it out of the way, 3. the plug is located under the plastic piece. It will have to be rotated 1/4 turn then pull straight back. The bulb is in the socket. 4. pull bulb from socket and take to parts store and give them the numbers off your old one. Install in reverse order. ****Special Note: Do NOT touch the bulb with your fingers. The oil off your hands will blow the bulb. I usually use a napkin or anything similar. Good luck. I hope this gets you going. The bulb is probably under $10.00 and can be changed in about 5-10 minutes.
    The headlight assembly is just a lens. You dont need to replace it unless it it physically broken or cracked.



    If you replaced the bulb and it still dont work, try replacing the plug and harness.



    Often the contacts get burned out or corroded and the lamp wont work.

    Changing the headlights on my Imported 4 wheeler motorbike...?

    I have an Imported 4 wheeler motorbike (Boss bs150st) an the headlights are faded and all rusty. I want to put some new headlights on it, but I am unsure of the wattage the wiring can handle. The globes in the old lights are both 30watts so does this mean any headlight 30watts or under should be fine to wire up???

    Thanks

    The right side can be done by removing the radiator over flow tank and get a small phillips screwdriver and remove one and loosen the other screw that hold a little spring bail on. Then the bulb holder comes out and the new bulb is put in. I haven't had the drivers side go out yet (02 Altima) I'm sure they have'nt changed such a brilliant design?????

    if you have an owners manual, look in there.



    Otherwise just reach down in the and turn the bulb holder and pull it out and replace it



    Just make sure you don't touch the new bulbs with your fingers cuz it make cause it to burn out quickly and possibly explode from the oil's on your fingers.
    How to change a headlight bulb on a 1990 Honda Civic?
    since you a girl most autopart stores will replace it if you buy from them
    Depending on which light it is the battery may be in the way. On the back of the light you'll see a big locking ring. Unplug the wire from the light,take off the ring and the bulb will pull out of the light assembly. When putting the new light in make sure not to touch the glass on the new bulb. Just touch the plastic. Oils from your hands getting on the bulb will cause the bulb to prematurely burn out.
    It's called %26quot;CHILTONS%26quot; 1990 Honda Civic repair manual available at most auto parts stores for about 12-15 bucks! A very worth while investment for amateurs!!!!!!!!!!!
    Open the hood, reach down behind the headlight, unplug the wire turn toward your left , pull out the bulb.
    Pull the plug from the back of the light. If the brass connections on the light go directly into the glass of the light, you need to replace the whole headlamp. If the connections first go into a plastic circle, you should be able to turn it counter clock-wise (looking from the back) and just replace the bulb. Another way to tell if it is a sealed beam or not is to look on the front lens. If it says 1A1 or 2A1 in the glass, it is a sealed beam and the whole light needs to be replaced. Be careful when replacing a sealed beam lamp because the phillips screws are for aiming the headlight, and the Torx screws are for holding the headlight in.

    How do I change the headlight bulbs on a Jeep Cherokee, 1994??

    Can anyone help? I cannot gain access to the rear of my Jeeps headlights so as to change the bulbs. There must be an easy method or do I have to take apart the complete housing?
    How do I change the headlight bulbs on a Jeep Cherokee, 1994??
    It`s a long job, all done from the front of the car. There is no access from under the bonnet to the back of the light housings

    You need to take off various bits of trim including the dummy side light/indicator. Take off the trim around the light, this will give you access to the screws that hold the light unit in place. Carefully remove the %26quot;bezel%26quot; as it`s called and the light unit will be free to take out. Take care with the lead to the side light , the main bulb is held in place by the %26quot;usual%26quot; spring clip. When you put it all back together make sure that the lights work BEFORE you put all the trim back, it`s very easy to dislodge the side light bulb!

    The procedure is covered in detail in the Haynes manual.

    I`ve done this job several times, and it still takes me at least 30 mins to do !

    By the way I use 130/100 watt bulbs ( no problem with MOT or the cops !)

    Halogen %26amp; Xenon.



    Xenon bulbs :recommend Mercedes / professional installation due to high voltage as book states.



    Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas -you can not touch it with bare hands -it can explode if you scratch it while it is warm' Protect your eyes %26amp; hands and all ways make sure car is cold.

    my best way, just because I don't know everything and would do this way, is to go down to autozone and find a 2003 book that had the cover off and read up on changing the headlight assy. Memorize it and go change it. Some autozones might even let you make a copy of the page. I've even asked them to take the plastic cover off so I could read a certain page. Use autozone or other carparts places as a library.

    In 2000 the headlight is not replaceble (cheaply atleast). It is a special molded piece that is only available through Toyota. They are extreamly expensive to replace. The Foggy ness is generally from being parked in the sun. The sun breaks down the plastick and will make it foggy and m,aybe yellowish. The cheap alternative to replacing this part (that costs $100+ to replace) is to take a rubbing compound and buff the whole front of the lense. this will take off the fogg area (with alot of elbo grease).

    The newer filament types are accessable from the back and alot of times are not easy due to wiring and tight quaters. Once you have that removed, use a blow dryer on low and blow into the hole for a few minutes to dry out the condensation.

    GM came out with a revised part for replacing the headlamps and turn signals. They were notorious For condensation, so they revised it. Use a blow drier on cool to get rid of condensation.

Remove black plastic strip above headlight (3 screws), left flat bar clips (about 1%26quot; wide metal bars) on either side of headlight straight up, whole assembly will come straight out making bulbs VERY easy to access. Just twist the retaining ring, lift the lock tab %26amp; the bulb's out.

    I have a 2001 toyota camry and the headlights keep blowing out?
    your voltage regulator is bad and overcharging the system. you will either have an external volt reg. that needs to be changed. or you have one built into the alternator that needs to be rebuilt.
    I have a 2001 toyota camry and the headlights keep blowing out?
    yes it could be the regulator but i think its a wire in your head lite system shorting out.

    FIRST, make sure you put a small hand towel under the headlight bezel. Push it in under the headlight assembly and between the front facia. This will help keep you from scractching your chrome Bezelette (bumper insert). Kind of tricky the first time but after you do it once, it is a piece of cake. The hard part is popping it out of the snaps.

    Here is the factory service manual instructions:



    REMOVAL

    Open hood, disconnect and isolate the battery

    negative cable.

    Remove the two headlamp unit retaining

    screws. (two screws on top)

    Gently pull headlamp unit forward, unsnapping

    it from the lower retaining clip. Be

    careful not to damage lower retaining clip upon

    removal. It also helps if you wiggle it side to side and pull at the same time.

    Disconnect the headlamp unit electrical connector.

    Connect the headlamp unit electrical connect.

    Gently place the headlamp unit into the body

    opening. Make sure the lower retaining clip is placed

    on the retaining bar on the bottom of the headlamp

    unit. Be careful not to damage lower retaining

    clip upon installation.

    Install the two headlamp unit retaining screws

    Reinstall the battery negative cable.

    Verify vehicle and system operation.

    How do i change the headlight bulb in a 1989 toyota corolla?
    On the back of the headlight, turn the base of the light bulb holder and then pull it out. The wires on them should be removable on the base of the bulbs. To remove the bulb from the base turn the bulb and it should be easy to oull out then replace the bulb using the same process. Make sure you wipe the light bulb face so that you leave no finger prints on them, some bulb will burn out with prints on them. Hope this helps.
    How do i change the headlight bulb in a 1989 toyota corolla?
    As someone already answered, there are services which will replace the bulb for you for a few bucks. Even Walmart auto dept will change out a headlight for you for less than $10 labor. Bulbs will cost you less than $10, too. so for about $20, you can have someone do it for you and not get all messed up.



    It's not too complicated to change a headlamp. It's just kinda hard. I know it sounds like it's same thing, but this is why. Usually the bulb is held into place by a mount with a ring that turns to lock it in. It's just a big FREAKIN' PAIN to try and turn that plastic ring, with trying to fit your hands and fingers into the small space. If it's the driver side headlamp, sometimes you've got to take out battery so you've got room to work. It's not complicated, just a hassle.

    Once you've got the ring turned, you'll see how it unlocks it. It doesn't unscrew like a pop bottle cap. Then you pull out the bulb. Think you can also remove the wiring from the part first before trying to move the locking ring which helps to not damage the wires. Once out, you merely replace the bulb like changing batteries, and then reassemble the whole thing again. It's much easier to pay the $20 to let someone else do it.



    IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!! If you do it yourself, you really really REALLY have to make sure that the new bulb has all your fingerprints off it. In fact, don't ever touch the bulb itself. This is why.

    Bulbs are halogen which burn extremely hot, that's why they throw a brighter light down the road. But they are sooooo hot, that they can burn extremely easily. Your fingers have grease on them, part of your body's stuff. Not talking about engine or motor grease, this is a natural oil on your fingers and hands. If this gets onto the bulb, the oils from your hands will actually begin to cook, or fry, just like french fries in cookng grease, and that will cause the bulb to burn out or even maybe explode. So be careful, or you'll be replacing the bulb very soon again.
    If you really don't know the proper way to remove it and install the new light have it done by your local Toyota Dealer.

    Small wire hold bulb in place,look closely to see how it retained,just push it in lightly and move it to one side a little bit to disengage it and the wire comes loose,then the bulb is free.All visible after pull out the rubber boot that cover it.

    Does anyone know where I can find step by step instructions to change the headlight on my 2002 Grand Prix?

    My headlight has been burnt out for quite some time and I just got pulled over and given a warning. I purchased the headlight, but have no idea how to put it in. I am looking for a website with step by step instructions, and possibly illistrations. I need to change it today, mostly because the same officer sits in the parking lot across from my job and he said he's seen me for a long time, and I don't want him to see me again tonight! It is a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix. Thank you for any help that you can offer!!!
    Does anyone know where I can find step by step instructions to change the headlight on my 2002 Grand Prix?
    Here is the step by step instruction You need..Open your hood. look behind the light you're trying to change the bulb on. You will see the wires running to the light. there is a locking ring that holds the bulb on the light. Turn the locking ring counter clock wise.Depending on which light it is you may have to remove the battery to gain space to get your hand on the ring and the light socket. Once the ring is off the light socket with the bulb should be able to be pullet straight out. Then you'll just lift the little locking clip on the plug and pull the bulb and plug apart.. When you install the new bulb it is important that you don't touch the glass bulb. If you want to ensure a long bulb life you can take some rubbing alcohol and wipe the glass part of the bulb clean of anything that could be on it. Yes even a new bulb could use this little treatment to make the bulb life longer. Then install the bulb, the lock ring and then the plug. It is really way simpler than it sounds! Just make sure you remember which way the lock ring was facing when it came off. And you don't try to put it on backwards. It will just get you frustrated and you won't know why you can't get it back on.

    Not trying to be a di*k, but have u looked in your owner's manual? They often have those type of instructions.

    Or maybe ask the guy behind the counter at the auto parts store ---- headlamp replacement is fairly simple. I changed one earlier this week %26amp; it took all of 3 minutes.



    Good luck!

    I have an 03 Grand Am, and the procedure is probably similar, but it would be very difficult to explain here. It's explained with illustrations in your owner's manual. If you don't have one, go to a public library and find the auto repair manuals and read up, or go to Autozone and buy the Haynes manual.
    Eautorepair.net has online access to a service manual for a small fee---should show replacement instructions. Otherwise , try some forums for Grand Prix owners like

    How do you change a headlight on a 2004 echo?
    Pop the hood. It should be a simple twist and pull situation. The entire light assembly should come out. Pull out the old bulb after this. Don't touch the new bulbs' glass. Reverse process.



    I suggest buying a %26quot;Haynes Repair Manual%26quot; You can get them at any auto parts store; auto zone, pep boys, kragen, etc. They are sold for every year make and model vechicle. These repair manuals give extensive, detailed, step by step repair for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that needs to be fixed on a car.

  • Changing headlights on 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport?

    My headlights don't illuminate anything and it makes me nervous driving in unfamiliar areas in the dark. I joke about having my friend with nice bright xenon headlights to drive behind me and light up the road ahead...



    I want to install new headlights, something that will be a lot brighter and safer. What are my options? Is it as simple as replacing the bulb or will the entire headlamp need to be swapped out? Any information would be a great help! Thanks!!
    Changing headlights on 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport?
    The simplest thing will be to just replace the bulb. Depending on the bulb number it is as simple as turning the bulb and pulling out.



    Normally there will be about 4 or 5 options for brightness level. The bluish tint lights will not be the brightest but will be brighter then stock. One of the brightest stock replacements will be the Sylvania Silverstar or Silverstar ultras. running about 37.99 or 49.99 a pair respectively.
    Changing headlights on 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport?
    Wolfyss answer is completely wrong. 2000 Jeep Cherokees have sealed beam units. You CAN'T just replace the bulb.



    Don't answer if you have no idea what you are talking about or too lazy to do a research (took 10 seconds for me to Goog it) before responding



    BTW, Silverstars only last ~200 hours.

    Jeep Cherokees are sealed beams. Meaning you can not replace just the bulb as stated above. There are silver stars as mentioned earlier made for a jeep or maybe just some new bulbs will do the trick. Also check your wiring behind them. IF the connectors are corroded that could lead to dim lights. There are two screws holding each one on. You can remove them and then unplug the lamp. Plug the new one in and put the trim ring and two screws back. Make sure you aim them.
    I have had great results in my Cherokee with these...



    Brand: WAGNER

    Model: Tru-Vue



    Don't fall for the blue tinted fake H.I.D. look, it was marketed for childrens %26quot;fart car%26quot; crowd to be cool looking...



    The most important thing is aiming the lamps. Find a deserted area, put the headlights on HIGH beam, block one lamp and adjust the other to shine directly straight forward then reverse and do the other side. You may not get it just right the first time, so experiment.



    Good Luck, Bruce

    Does anyone know how to change the headlight bulbs on a 2001 Chevy Cavalier ?

    The owners manual says something about removing a clip that holds the turn signal assembly to the headlight assembly and then the headlight assembly will come out , I don't see any clip. Thanks for your help..
    Does anyone know how to change the headlight bulbs on a 2001 Chevy Cavalier ?
    Sorry, I'm not seeing anything about a clip myself.

    For either the Headlamps or Front Park and Turn Signal Lamps



    1. To remove the six plastic fasteners from the shield use a screwdriver to pull up the center of the fastener. Be careful not to break the fasteners that hold the shield in place.

    2. Using a 13 mm socket, remove the two bolts from the headlamp. Pull the headlamp assembly up and toward the front of the vehicle to access the bulb assembly.

    When replacing the driver鈥檚 side headlamp, twist the bulb assembly one-eighth turn counterclockwise and remove it from the headlamp assembly. When replacing the passenger鈥檚 side headlamp, twist the bulb assembly one-eighth turn clockwise and remove it from the headlamp assembly.

    3. Disconnect the bulb base from the socket by lifting the plastic locking tab.

    4. Remove the black collar by turning it counterclockwise.

    5. Remove the bulb by pulling the bulb straight out.

    6. Snap a new bulb into the socket.

    7. Reinstall the bulb assembly by reversing Steps 1 through 3, making sure the lower leg of the headlamp bracket is properly seated into the wedge-shaped retainer.

    How do you replace the headlight bulb on a renault clio 2004 model?
    You remove the rubber boot from the back of the headlamp.



    The bulb is released by twisting it clockwise (looking at it from the back of the light unit).

    Once released the bulb will need to be pulled quite firmly to release it.

    The new bulb the needs to be plugged into the holder, with out touching the glass on the bulb.

    Once it is plugged back in to the bulb holder, it is fitted back into the headlight by iserting it back in to position and twisting the bulb holder anti-clockwise.



    They can be a bit tricky on these clio, especially if it has air con. You may find that you will keep scratching yourself on a black clip that holds a pipe in position on the inner wing.

    This clip can carefully be removed if you need too.



    Renault specify removal of the front bumper to replace the headlight bulb on this model of the clio, but it is possible to do without removing it.

    Could be messy otherwise!
    You do not have to take it to a mechanic. I took my Toyota to the dealtership. They charged me $182 for doing that. I was so shocked. Then my brother told me to take my 2001 Toyota when the headlight bulb burned out to Auto Zone. The guys there are so helpful and will change it for you. Cost to me $13.23. I love Auto Zone. If you do not have one, go to another auto parts store and ask if they can help you.
    You need to get in touch with ET .H e is anElectrical Therapist who specializes in changing light bulbs in renaults.Or just remove the big plastic part on the back of the light and this will let you gain access to the offending bulb which has to be replaced.It has a small clip to retain it which has to be unclipped to allow the bulb to be removed.
    To a garage, they charged me only for the bulb, not for replacing it, æ‹¢5.
    Well the easiest way is to first find out the type of bulb needed. Is it a high beam or a low beam blub that is out? You can simply find out by checking your owner's manual. It should tell you exactly what type of bulb you need AND how to replace it. [How I changed my headlight bulbs on my 07 Accord and saved big $$$]



    Also, some headlight lamps [the whole compartment] have small little letters written such as HB3, HB4, or HB5 [it should be written in clear font at the bottom edge of the lamp assembly, right below the corresponding bulb].



    Most bulbs can be found at local automotive stores for really cheap. If you want quality, be willing to spend 15-30$. Sylvania is a good company. [If you only change one bulb, make sure you get the same color rating, halogen bulbs operate at different temperatures producing different colored lights.] This is the reason why you see blue head lights on some cars. If you replace one bulb, I suggest you replace the same corresponding bulb on your passenger head light assembly as well. Otherwise you might end up with one very bright light while the other lamp only produces half the amount of light.

    turn it left and it will come out very easily after that. check your manual for instruction as well. don't touch the lense of the new bulb when you putting it back in, it will burn the bulb or even crack the lense, our skin have oil. most importantly, be safe...

    Remove the chrome trim that holds the headlight in with a phillips screwdriver(3 screws) and the headlight will fall right out.I think that you have to remove the chrome trim on the grill with a torx bit first.Be careful that you don't turn the adjustment screw,it is a torx screw.
    How do you change the headlight on a Jeep Wrangler?
    use a torx screwdriver t-15 to remove the headlight bezel. remove the retaining ring around the head light three screws. do not touch the headlight adjustment screws, the ones that re spring loaded.

    Under 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.

    Its not hard. Look at the passenger side light. You will see to metal clips holding the back cover to the headlight on.

On the drivers side just take the battery cover off and you should have just enough room to get to it
    How to change my headlight bulb?
    I'd suggest a Haynes manual (available at auto parts stores)



    You might find it in the acr's owener's manual.



    Basically you have to find the back of the headlamp assembly and then turn the part where the wire goes in CCW a little bit and pull the bulb out.

    Sometimes the whole lamp socket turns, sometimes it's a dollar, but essentially it's a bayonet mount like a camera lens.



    Clean the new bulb with alcohol and do not touch it - the oil from your finger will contaminate the glass and cause premature failure.
    VW are always fairly easy to do routine fixes on.



    %26quot;It's very easy to change the headlight bulbs. They just twist about 45

    degrees and pull out. Disconnect the connector first. Don't touch the glass

    on the bulbs and be sure to clean the new ones with alcohol just in case

    someone else did. The high's are 9005 and the lows are 9006 (i think). PIAA

    is in the process of making their superwhite bulbs in these sizes. They

    should be available in 100 watt ratings which our cars will handle without a

    problem. Each bulb has its own circuit and fuse and the current draw is

    within limits of the wire size.%26quot;

    Would I be within my rights to call the AA to come change my car's broken headlight bulb?

    One of my front car's front headlights has blown.



    I've checked with the manual and to change the headlight bulb, you have to remove the front bumper in order to get access.



    Stupid design and a tricky job for the inexperienced.. there are clips to unclip and then like 15 torx screws to remove from different areas.



    I reckon someone with experience could do it in 10 minutes.. but I can't do it... already had a try at it.
    Would I be within my rights to call the AA to come change my car's broken headlight bulb?
    I called the AA out because my headlights weren't working - it was night and I couldn't drive the car safely without them - It turned out the switch had failed but they managed to sort out a work around until I could get a new one fitted. I would say you situation is similar - you can't legally drive the car at night as it is and you are unable to fix it so why shouldn't you ask them to help, so long as you have appropriate cover eg Home Start if the car is at home.

    The mechanic will probably be quite happy to get something they can fix.......
    Would I be within my rights to call the AA to come change my car's broken headlight bulb?
    Of course they will do. Just explain what you did on here! No probs!
    Yeah course you can, the people at the call center can't even inflate a tyre.
    i get bulbs changed for maybe 5 euros in a garage!



    i dont know if it would be worth the hassle bringing them out for that! i think you might look a bit silly!
    it's worth a try! the worst they can say is no, if they won't take it to a local garage or the place you get it serviced/dealership.
    it wouldn't hurt to ask but i think they would say no unless you were on stuck on the side of the road in the dark when it blew and it wasn't safe to drive.
    you have no rights especially not the right to take the mickey in any case bulbs are routine maintenance and down to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    if you can't do a simple bulb change then you should not be driving . you ever looked at that thing they call an engine.
    Take it to the carage for repair
    You should read your AAA policy documents in detail, as they will outline the specific things that they will cover. I think lock out, towing, jump start, and emergency refueling are the services that you can count of AAA road-side assistance to help you with.



    I strongly suspect headlight bulb replacement wouldn't be covered since it is a routine maintenance procedure, and not a 'roadside emergency'



    also, there is usually more than one way to get access to something a vehicle. take a look and see if there is something inside the engine compartment that you can easily remove. (for example, the battery or the air filter box)



    you might also want to try an internet forum specific to your vehicle (or at the very least post the type of car) to read about what others have done in your situation
    I think an auto repair garage would be more appropriate.
    It depends how hard faced you are.You could call the AA,it's what you pay them for but this cover is supposed to be for emergencies,not jobs you can't be @rsed with.They probably would sort it for you.You will have to say that the problem has only just started and you daren't drive without your lights.If you are prepared to front it out when the guy looks at you with contempt and knows you are taking the p!ss then do it. You paid for the homestart option for a reason.
    well i think that you could always ring them and ask them first they will not laugh at you but i have to admit green flag are a lot better and id change to another if they say but then i would also drive to my friends house then ring them as it sounds better than being at home. good luck
    if your a aa member,i think so as they would come out and fit your spare wheel on if you had a flat.its againt the law to drive a vehicle with out lights working propely even in daylight hours.so i think yes as part of ther job is road safety.

    they are different bulbs dummy replace both and they will look the same if it bothers you
    White light comes in different colors that are determined by their heat.

    Yellow white isn't as hot or bright as white/bluish light

    keep the yellow as a safety spare and go back and buy a high intensity bright light they are usually always the blue bright white.
    Wiggle the connection and see if it gets brighter. If not check the ground wire from the socket to where it is fastened to the body.

    Would it be worth changing out the Headlamp bulbs on my-?

    I have a 06 Chevy Silverado and was woundering if I should change the headlight bulbs to those new white lights that they sell.

What brand would you reccomend, I have heard of those silver star bulbs before but don't want to replace origional bulbs unless it would be worth it?

    How do I change my headlight bulb on a 2007 lexus es350?
    If you can afford a 2007 Lexus ES then i personaly think you should take it to the dealer or a good mechanic, not try to fix it yourself.
    well i will recommend you to use or see your car manual and it should tell you what to do. i will say first you need to unplug the electrical harness out from the bulbs. and then take the seal or the water house sealing out and look for the metal that holds the bulbs and unlatch it and take the bulbs out. and remember when installing the new bulbs, be sure not to touch the bulbs because that will shorter the life of the new bulbs. so the best way to do this is buy looking into your car manual and read and understand the whole thing or if you don't want to damage anything to your new beautiful. i will suggest you take it your Nearest Lexus or Toyota dealer. they can help you install it but will cost you money or just take it your nearest autozone too. may be some guy who have experience and help you instill it. good luck.

    What i would do would be to remove the head light housing from the car completely then it should be really easy to see were the bulb is and take it out, but with some of these newer cars they make it harder and harder to DIY. I would recommend taking it to the dealer and asking them to show you or to go to your local auto parts store and buying a Chitlen
