I looked breifly the other day and looks like the drivers side will be a Pain in the butt.

What's the best way to replace the bulbs. I saw some posts saying you don't have to remove the Headlight Assembly. Can you reach through from the ground or do you have to drop the wheel well liner?

Thanks

If you go in from below it becomes a lot less complicated than pulling the lights. It's still a pain but just feel your way around and it can be done pretty easily, and a couple of those headlight bolts are pretty tough to reach anyway. I did not have to pull the liner, but it was a pretty tight squeeze. thumb2

i'm finaLLY getting around to changing the bulbs and i'm stuck on the Drivers side. Got it out, got new bulb in the socket but i can't get it back into the headlamp assembly. I came in to look for some poiniters but not seeing any, guess i'll take a breather and go try again!


DEEP BREATH!
