Пошаговая инструкция
1
- Rotate the outer ring of the headlight bulb holder counterclockwise to remove it.
- Carefully pull the headlight bulb holder out of its socket.
- When installing a headlight bulb, '''do not touch the bulb with your bare skin'''. Wear gloves when installing a new headlight bulb. Halogen bulbs are sensitive to skin oils, and the bulb may burn out quickly if you touch the bulb during installation.
- If you accidentally touch the bulb, clean it immediately using rubbing alcohol on a clean cloth.

- Use the 10 mm socket wrench to unscrew the first of three 12 mm long 10 mm hex-head screws holding in the headlight assembly. The screw is located just to the left of the headlight assembly.
- Unscrew the second screw located approximately 6 inches below the first.
- Locate the third screw at the bottom left corner of the headlight assembly just behind the bumper and remove.
- When re-installing the screws do not over tighten. Over tightening the screws will result in stripped threads.
