2002 Nissan Altima 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 90.000 miles

I want to know how to replace a low beam bulb. I cannot find any instruction in the owners manual. I already purchased the bulb for a cost of $6.99.

Working in the engine compartment behind the headlight housing, turn the outer plastic cap counterclockwise and unlock it from the housing. Disconnect the bulb socket. Release the retaining springs and remove the bulb from the housing. Install is reverse.
