Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they will be replaced immediately. If a
bulb is removed for an extended period of time, contaminants may enter
the lamp housings and affect performance.
Replacing headlamp bulbs
To remove the headlamp bulb:
1. Make sure headlamp switch is in OFF position.
2. Lift the hood and remove the protective cover from the top of the
headlamps by lifting up on the rear corners and release the velcro
attachments. Lift the cover and pull towards the windshield.
3. At the back of the headlamp, pull
back slightly and up on the two
retainer pins to release the
headlamp assembly from the vehicle
and pull headlamp forward.
4. Remove the protective dust shield
from the housing by turning the
dust shield counterclockwise (when
viewed from the rear).

2. Install the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base and lock the ring
by rotating clockwise until it snaps into place.
3. Connect the electrical connector to the bulb.
4. Install the protective dust shield and lock the shield by rotating it
clockwise until it locks into position.
5. Carefully position the headlamp assembly onto the vehicle making sure
the alignment pins are inserted into the proper holes.
6. Hold the headlamp assembly snugly against the vehicle and push down
on the retainer pins to lock the lamp into place.
7. Before reinstalling the protective cover, make sure the cover tabs are
fully seated under the grille molding.

headlamp was correctly aligned before you changed the bulb, you should
not need to align it again.
