Right low beam head light does not work?

Hi,

Is this a 2-door coupe or is it a 4-door sedan? Also, the pic you provided appears to be the back of a sealed beam headlamp. There is usually a thin steel frame around the lamp that holds it in place. The frame, which is screwed into the headlamp bucket, needs to be removed first and then the light will come right out.

Do me a favor. Take a pic of the headlamp and upload it for me to see. If it is a 9004, you should be able to turn it a 1/4 turn counterclockwise to remove it. If it is a sealed beam, then what I mentioned above is needed.

Let me know.

Hi,

No, that's a sealed beam bulb. I have a 1988 that I sat and ordered new. It now has 9K on it. LOL When it was 10 years old (4K miles), I had to sell it because we needed money for a house. It was never even in the rain. Well, 23 years later, it came back to me. I saw it for sale on the side of the road. As soon as I saw it was a 5-speed, I got interested. It was my car that I ordered when I was a young man, 23 years old.

Back to your car. I copied your pic. The black bezel that goes around the light is what is holding it in place. I believe there are a total of 4 screws that hold that bezel in place. Remove the screws and the bezel and light will come out.

I place an X over two of the screws. Note that they are a little different. Those are adjusters, don't turn those or you may end up with the light pointing into the tops of trees. LOL

When you install the new light, make sure it isn't upside down.

Let me know if that helps or if you have questions.

Take care and Happy 4th.
