    I'm trying to install new bulbs but can't get the old bulb assemblies out. I've tried (seemingly) everything but can't get the room to work.

    Make sure not to touch the replacement bulb with your hand. The oil on your skin will shorten the life of the bulb. Wear a glove or use a plastic bag.How do I change the headlight on a 2003 Ford Ranger?David Z is wrong. 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.

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

    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.

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

    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

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

    How do I change a headlight on my 83 Honda Nighthawk Motorcycle?

    My low beam headlight on my nighthawk burnt out, and I need some advice on what part it is, where to get it, and how to change it.How do I change a headlight on my 83 Honda Nighthawk Motorcycle?There's a single screw on bottom /center of the headlight case on the Rectangle lights.



    On the Round lights,,,

    there's 2 screws positioned at about 4 O'clock and 8 o'clock,,on the headlight case.



    On either type light,,,

    remove those screws,

    then pull headlight out at the bottom first.



    Its a sort of Tilt motion,,,tilts out at bottom.

    The Upper edge of the Beam Assembly %26quot;hooks%26quot; into the upper area of the headlight case.



    You will probably have to Pry the light's Chrome Trim Ring from the Case to get it started



    Be careful,,,it all come loose rather suddenly and will fall free.



    To RE-INSTALL,,,,Look at the detail of the Inside of the Case's Upper Head,,,you can see how it hooks in.

    Hook it in to Upper Edge first,,,then %26quot;swing %26quot; the bottom edge in towards the case.



    The assembly Faintly %26quot;snaps%26quot; into place.

    Re-install the screw/screws.



    TRY to get screw holes lined up before snapping beam assy into place.

    Tuff %26amp; tedious to get it positioned exactly right ,,,usually.



    You should be able to turn the beam assy on the Round Light(cb750's) if needed.

    The Rectangle 550/650 lights %26quot;naturally%26quot; go into position.

    ......................................?br>
    The BULB is a 55/60watt H-4 Halogen Bulb.



    (The 450 Nighthawks have a sealed beam unit vs the separate bulb/beam assy of the bigger bikes.

    Best/easiest source is usually a Honda Dealer,unless you want to mail order one)



    That's a Common type of bulb....H4



    Bike Shops,Autoparts,even places like WalMart have them.



    Phillips Brand is generally overall %26quot;best%26quot; bulb.



    Phillips models %26quot;Power2Night/GT150%26quot; or %26quot;Vision Plus%26quot;

    are Excellent Replacements if you're interested in upgrading.



    There's a BUNCH of brands,,,,power ratings,,light colours,etc.



    %26quot;Standard%26quot; or %26quot;Long Life%26quot; or %26quot; PLUS%26quot; type wording is usually best choice.



    All the more exotic options are not what they're cracked-up to be,,in my opinion.

    They get expensive,,,and are not very durable.





    Phillips,,G.E. and Sylvania are commonly available at most AutoParts,Walmart,etc.

    Hella and Bosch are also very good bulbs if you happen upon those.

    They are all good choices,including their upgrade/hi-performance versions.



    Original Honda Bulb from the Dealer is a good bulb also.



    Dont get romanced by the Advertising Hype on the bulbs you may see.



    Bulbs seem to be a big Fad lately,,,especially the %26quot;Blueish Ones%26quot; which try to mimic Hi Intensity Discharge%26quot;HID%26quot; Bulbs.



    Colour ratings beyond 5000~6000 become %26quot;Tricky%26quot; to the eye......even though they SEEM Brighter.



    Especially for most folks older than 35~40 years of age %26amp; the natural changes in Human Vision which begins around that age.



    %26quot;Your Age%26quot; is Weird Thing to mention about Light Bulbs,I know,,,,

    but nobody ever tells ya about that,,it's seldom Ever mentioned.



    LOTS of bulbs on the market SOUND like the greatest thing since Sunlight,,,and bike riders are usually interested in getting best illumination as possible.



    60~70 MPH on a Dark ,unfamiliar road is a bad time to learn about the quirks of Depth Perception Optical Illusions of Hi-Bandwith Light.



    Most all the Glorious -sounding bulbs,,aren't such a bright idea.



    ......................................?br>
    Whichever bulbs you chose....

    It's VERY Important to Bulb Life to Not Touch the Glass of the Bulb.

    Fingerprints will create hot-spots on the bulb,and cause premature failure.



    Wipe them with some common rubbing alcohol and clean tissue...

    and handle them with tissue while installing.



    ..........................

    It's really rather simple %26amp; quick job.

    The 'TRICKS%26quot; are

    * getting the beam assembly %26quot;snapped%26quot; in/out, it's not difficult at all,,,just be aware

    *the beam suddenly %26quot;pops free%26quot;

    *Keep the Bulb CLEAN while installing it,,,even of fingerprints.

    To do this; remove the headlight from the housing that holds it (a couple of screws and you should be able to lift it out) and unplug. Replace with new unit and tighten screws complete.

    If you wish to not pay for a complete unit, cut carefully the old globe out of the lens, purchase a new standard car globe, if need be, enlarge the hole to fit the new globe snugly and silicon in (making sure you put in the correct way so low beam is at the top of the lens), make sure bottom glass of globe sitting flush with the bottom of lens (so you don't throw the focus of the light beam out), allow to set over night before you replace in the bike.

Or can I change it from the back?How do I change the headlight bulb on a 98 Honda Civic?You do not have to remove the headlight assembly in order to replace the headlights on your car. Now the turn signals are in the fenders and so that's a different story.



    To replace th eheadlights in a '96-'00 Honda Civic:



    - Open the hood of the car.



    - Pinch either side of the square black plug on the back of the headlight housing. They do somethign stick, and so if they do just press in one side and lean it in the opposite direction then after that pinch in the other side. That usually works for me



    - Remove the black rubber boot from the back of the housing by pulling it off.



    - There is a metal clip on the headlight housing behind that rubber boot. Press it n and unclip it (you'll see when you get there).



    - Now the bulb is free. Remove the bulb.



    - When you replace the old with the new bulb DO NOT touch the glass on the bulb! This will leave oils from your skin on the bulb and will cause it to possibly burn out faster (it heats up the outside of the bulb more).



    - Do everything in reverse to replace the bulb. :)



    It's pretty easy and you should probbaly pick it up after once. Your owner's manual shoudl also have illustrations in it to explain the removal and install. Good luck.How do I change the headlight bulb on a 98 Honda Civic?For the driver's side headlight; I found that lifting up on the power steering reservoir until it became unlatched from it's mounting and separated from it's bracket, gave me much more room to get that damn headlight connector off and a new bulb in without tainting the bulb.

    Thanks.How do I change a headlight bulb on a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass?On this car there is a bulkhead behind the headlight assembly which prohibits normal access to the bulbs. You need to remove the assembly from the front to get at the bulbs.



    This is actually pretty easy and should be described in your owners manual. If you don't have that just look for two plastic tabs that push down from the top to secure the headlight assembly in place. Pull those up and the whole thing should slide right out. Then just reach for the bulb, give it a little turn and pull it out.How do I change a headlight bulb on a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass?Try going to AutoZone.com...they have online repair manuals for free on their website.

  • How do I change a headlight bulb on a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass?

    I am trying to help a friend of mine change his headlight bulb (just the bulb, not the whole assembly). He has a 1997 Olds Cutlass, and we're not sure how to gain access to the bulb. The headlight assembly has metal plates behind it, so we don't have direct access to the bulb. I've never come across a vehicle that doesn't offere easy direct access to the bulb. I'm thinking we're going to have to pull the whole headlight assembly forward in order to get to the bulb, but we're not exactly sure how.

    How to change headlights in a Rav4 L 1997?

    i purchased new headlight bulbs and theyre not opened yet but i dont know how to change them.How to change headlights in a Rav4 L 1997?If you have the owner's manual, refer to it because it should have instructions on how to replace your headlamp bulbs.



    NEVER TOUCH THE GLASS BULB WITH YOUR HANDS OR YOUR LIGHTS WILL GO OUT IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. If you happen to touch the glass part of the bulb with your hands, get some rubbing alcohol and clean the bulb thoroughly before you install it to use it.



    Otherwise, you just lift your hood, locate the plugs directly behind each headlight. You will probably have to turn (or push in and turn) the plug and pull out the current bulb. Then do the reverse, and you should be done. As long as you can reach the plugs (i.e. sometimes the battery or some other item is in the way), it should only take you 5-10 minutes to replace both bulbs.

  • Does anyone know how to change headlight bulbs on a bmw?

    I have a 2000 BMW 323iDoes anyone know how to change headlight bulbs on a bmw?I just changed it myself and it's relatively easy. Look for the gray part and twist it counterclockwise. Don't twist the light bulbs or the wires but almost the whole thing. It should come out easy. Be careful taking it out if it was recently on because it's going to be hot. If it's broken then never mind it and wiggle it out. Insert the new headlight bulbs but don't touch the glass because you will decrease the life of the bulb. Make sure you don't lose the rubber seal on the way in because that'll get some water in possibly burning it out or fogging up the headlight hence decreasing visibility. You should be good to go.Does anyone know how to change headlight bulbs on a bmw?You need to open your hood. and behind each headlight, you'll find either, a cover that you'll have to twist off to get to the headlights, or, you'll find the bulbs right away. you'll have to twist the bulbs out once you get to it, and pull them out, and then unhook it from the plug. and replace them. You can buy bulbs for like $10 at any car accessory store, Pepboys, Autozone, CAP, NAPA, etc..

    How to change headlight on a 2002 Dodge Durango?

    1. Remove the small Torx head screw and detach the park/turn signal light housing. (Screws are located between headlight and signal housing)



    2. Remove headlight housing mounting bolts (there are 3 of them, 1 on the side and two on bottom)



    3. Disconnect the electrical connector, unscrew the headlight bulb-retaining ring and withdraw the bulb.



    4. Installation is the reverse of the romaval procedure, but handle the new bulb only with gloves or a clean rag.



    5. If you need to adjust the headlight, there are two spring loaded adjusting screws above the headlight but below the top of the fender. Adjust accordingly.How to change headlight on a 2002 Dodge Durango?You don't have to take the whole headlight out, I just changed my 2003's yesterday.



    You can reach the retaining ring on the back of the headlight, turn and take bulb with wire out, replace bulb, insert bulb and wire back into headlight and screw the retaining ring back on. It is a little awkward to reach the retaining ring, but it can be done, took me 5 minutes to do both.

    How do you change a burned out headlight on a 2002 VW New Beetle?

    I've changed headlights out of many cars in my life, but can't figure out how to gain access on this one. I obviously don't want to break anything to gain access, but I am sure it is a simple procedure to do it correctly. Normally, I have gone in through the back of the light fixture (through the engine compartment), but there is no access via this route. I'm wondering if the headlight fixture itself pops out from the front, allowing access to the burned out buld.How do you change a burned out headlight on a 2002 VW New Beetle?I have a 2000 Beetle and had to have both headlights replaced.

Any help?How hard is it to change headlight switch on a 77 corvette?I would imagine the switch knob can be pulled out by pushing a release button on top of the light switch controller.

    Once the handle AND SHAFT pull out, you can then remove the retaining knob from the front of the dash where the handle and shaft came out.



    After you unscrew the retaining knob, the light switch unit should come right out. Carefully unplug the wire harness.

    I need to know how to change the headlight bulb in my car but I dont know how. Can some one please give me a detailed discription on how to change the bulb or give me a link or something? Pictures would be nice :DHow to change headlight bulb in a 1992 chevorlte caprice?There are two metric hex bolts that need to be removed from the top of the headlight frame under the hood. The entire plastic headlight will drop out in your hands. In the back of the headlight there is a large plastic ring that must be turned counter-clockwise before the bulb assembly can be removed.



    It's important not to touch the glass part of the new bulb with your hands. Double-up a layer of Kleenex between our fingers and the bulb. The reason for this precautionary measure is the natural oil on your fingers will cause a hot-spot on the bulb when it illuminates causing it to fail.



    Very carefully wipe *silicone ignition grease on the orange colored O ring at the base of the bulb socket. Silicone grease displaces moisture inside the car electrical socket that plugs into the bulb socket.
