Switching Headlight Bulbs
I'm sorry for posting this up becuase it is probably the easiest thing in the world to do, but I need help! I've looked through the DIY's and I didn't see it anywhere, so i'm hoping someone out there can help me out.
I'm trying to switch out the headlights and the driving lights for my car. You know, the ones that (when they turn on) they show that nasty oem yellow? [driving lights]
If someone can show me how and has some pictures, that would be extremely helpful!
Thanks a lot and have a great day everyone

Really easy bro..I dont have pics to illustrate, but all you do for headlamps is unplug, remove boot and then there is a clip pinch it together and that is it! The other bulbs the holders just twist!
yea, it is really simple. you may have to pull the power steering reservoir out so you have enough room to get your hand in on the driver side. be very careful not to touch the bulbs with your bare hands while putting them in... if you do they will pop when they heat up. and also make sure that you put the rubber boots back in all the way so no moisture gets in there.
Oh so its just a direct plug like the tail lights then. So m question now is: Aside form the resovior, do I need to remove anything else to get to these bulbs? Or can i get to the rest of them by just reaching, grabbing, twisting, then pulling?
THankS!

you can reach the main light from the top, but the signal and parking lights are a little harder. jack up the car a little bit if you can, and go inside the fender, just loosen the plastic fender and pull it back some. this is what the owners manual says to do also. another option is to just take the lights out, but thats more work.
