The owner's manual shows that there are two screws on the top of the headlamp housing that hold the entire housing to the vehicle. Remove those two screws and then you have to slide the entire assembly out towards the front of the vehicle. This is the hard part as there is a clip that the bottom of the housing slides under that holds it down and you must slide the housing straight back to get it out. It's difficult because the housing is flush with the grill and body work so there isn't much room to grab. Just be patient and don't force anyting as it's all plastic. Once you've removed the assembly, unplug it from the vehicle wiring harness and then take the whole thing inside to work on. - Remove the rubber boot covering the lamp that needs replaced
- Remove the wiring connector
- Remove the metal retaining clip by turning counter clockwise... two small tabs on the clip slide under the two torx screws which holds the lamp in place.
- Replace old bulb with new one being careful NOT TO TOUCH THE GLASS PORTION OF THE BULB.
- Replace clip. This took the longest for me as I have big hands and had to do the whole thing using tools instead of reaching into the housing and doing it all by hand. You'll need a helper to level the housing while you work on the clip.
- Replace wiring connector. *** Test the lighting now before reassembling everything in case you have a bad bulb or connection. ***
- Replace rubber boot.
- Reconnect to vehicle wiring harness
- Slide housing straight back into vehicle, making sure the lower portion of the housing slides under the retainer in the bottom of the opening.
- Replace screws
