Removal Procedure
CAUTION:
Halogen bulbs contain a gas under pressure. Handling a bulb improperly could cause it to shatter into flying glass fragments. To help avoid personal injury:
- Turn off the headlamp switch and allow the bulb to cool before changing bulbs. Leave the headlamp switch off until the bulb change is complete.
- Always wear eye protection when changing a halogen bulb.
- Handle the bulb only by its base. Avoid touching the glass.
- Do not drop or scratch the bulb. Keep moisture away.
- Place the used bulb in the new bulb's carton and dispose of it properly. Keep halogen bulbs out of the reach of children.
- Remove the headlamp attachment bolts, 1 upper and 1 lower connecting to the headlamp mounting bracket.
- Disconnect the headlamp bulb and the turn signal sockets from the headlamp housing.
- Pull the center edge of the housing forward, then slide the headlamp housing toward the center of the vehicle to remove.
