Many light bulb replacement bulbs simply change via twisting/removing and replacing the bulb and reverse the process... you're done. The blinker bulbs can be done this way, but the low (and high ) beam bulbs are not obvious, can you help with directions?
Thank you, Don

Hello,

The replacement of the headlight bulbs for this vehicle is somewhat similar to the replacement of the turn signal bulb.
First take off the wiring connector from the bulb.
The head light bulb will twist counter clockwise to release from the housing.
Keep in mind when you are handling the new bulb do not touch the glass part of the light bulb. The grease and moisture from your finger will get stuck to the bulb and that will cause the light to go bad prematurely.

Here is a helpful guide of headlight replacement:

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
