headlight bulb removal??

Featured Replies

ok, going by the manual it says to remove electrical connector then the rubber boot...the writing on the boot says to >push<..well, i push and nothing happens, what the heck am i doing wrong?

 

maybe i am way to tired to be doing this and trying to find drain plug holes :)

the "push" writing,just tells ya where to push to make sure plug goes on correctly.

 

you really pull that section to unplug it.may have to wiggly it seeing that they have tendency to be a'lil stuck on.

 

after having it unplugged,you remove the rubber ring and then a spring clip.

 

installing new bulb is just the reverse of removal.

yes,pull towards back of vehical.(which reminds me..i gotta replace mine)

 

like i said,it may require some wiggling

I believe on that style you have to push and turn/twist the bulb then you can pull it out. if you can wrangle the rubber boot back that might help to see.

yay! got them, they were just very stubborn, in fact, looks like they were the original bulbs, car is a 1993 but only has 96k so very well could be the original ones

 

anyway, good to go!

 

thanks everyone!
