6-10 Hood Release
To open the hood, first pull the handle inside the vehicle.
It is located below the instrument panel on the
driver's side.
Then go to the front of the vehicle and release the
secondary hood release. Lift the hood.

6-34 Headlamps
To replace your headlamps follow these steps:
1. Open the hood.
2. Pull straight up on the two headlamp retainers to
release the assembly locator tabs and take the
retainers off. At the same time, hold the headlamp
assembly in position by applying a little pressure
against the headlamp lens. This prevents the lamp
from falling out.
