We are not able to find a easy way to get to headlamp. Can you provide pictures or explain it in simple terms the easiest way to change the light. I don't want to have to take it to a mechanic to get the job done!

Thank You

CAUTION: ? A halogen bulb generates extremely high heat when it is used. If the surface of the bulb is soiled, excessive heat will build up and the lights life
will be shortened. When replacing the bulb, hold the metal flange, not the glass.



4. Install in the reverse order of removal.
