examine or change a low beam
headlight bulb yourself . If a low
beam headlight bulb fails, take the
vehicle to your dealer to have it
replaced.Halogen bulbs are used f or the high

replacing a high beam headlight bulb,
handle it by its base, and protect the

hard objects. If you touch the glass,
clean it with denatured alcohol and a
clean cloth.
