- 1). Remove the chrome retaining ring from the bad headlight. This should just pop straight off with just a little force.
- 2). Remove the two or three retaining screws on the headlight, using the screwdriver. Set them aside for use with the new headlight.
- 3). Wriggle the headlight out of its housing. Do this carefully, using a downward motion. Pull until the plug in the back is visible.
- 4). Grasp the three-pronged plug with the needle-nose pliers, and carefully unplug it from the headlight.
- 5). Remove the new headlight from its packaging with gloved hands. Wipe any dust or package particles with a clean cloth.
- 6). Plug the new headlight into the three-pronged plug. Use the needle-nose pliers if necessary. Do not damage the plug.
- 7). Slide the new bulb back into the housing once the connection is secure. Put the screws back in place.
- 8). Turn on the new headlight and check that it is aligned. Adjust the alignment so the beam shines slightly down.
- 9). Replace the chrome retaining ring. Shine the chrome and wipe the new bulb one more time.
