  1. Remove the six bolts securing the front nacelle headlight shroud. Pull this piece forward to access the headlight.
  2. Remove the sealing boot. Press the looped end of the wire bulb retainer clip and swing the end toward the center of the bulb to release it from the latch tab.
  3. With the wire connector attached, pull the bulb out. Disconnect the wire harness.
  4. Install the new bulb and secure the retainer.
    TIP
    Avoid touching a halogen lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp. If a lamp is touched, clean it thoroughly with denatured alcohol.
  5. Reinstall the sealing boot. Make sure it seals tightly around the bulb base and lens to prevent condensation.
  6. Reinstall the front nacelle headlight shroud.
