Does anyone know how to change the headlight on a '97 Ford Escort?

hey, open bonnet, remove metal clip off the back plate of the headlamp, remove this cover, then pull of the plug off of the back of the bulb, there is then a metal spring clip which i believe u squeeze together and pull outwards. this will then allow the bulb to be removed. then to fit the new bulbj ust do these steps in reverse. it is important not to touch the glass of the bulb with your hands as the moisture in your hands will muck up the bulb. this is due to them being halogen. i also advise putting a small amount of grease or similar on the plug connection this just makes fitting the plug easier and keep the water out. hope this helps.

mikeyDoes anyone know how to change the headlight on a '97 Ford Escort?Is it just the bulb you want to change or the complete headlamp? If its just the bulb just go with what has been previously said taking care not to touch the glass part with your hands.
