cases, other parts of the ca r must fi rst be re­
moved before you a re able to get to the bu lb.
This applies espec ially to the light bu lbs in the
front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment .
Sheet metal and bulb ho lde rs can have sha rp
edges that can cause ser ious cuts, parts must be
correct ly taken apart and then properly put back
together to he lp prevent breakage of parts and
long term damage from water that can enter
housings that have not been properly resea led.
