I am changing the original equipment bulb for which the replacement is Sylvannia H11 which I believe is a regular headlamp bulb.

O.K. Remove the cover Next twist the bulb counter clock wise and once it is out remove bulb from connector.

Installing bulb low beam

HINT: Look through the glass of the headlamp to align the lamp and twit clock wise to lock back in place.

This bulbs are very difficult to access but you just need a little patience. Good luck to you.
