6. Remove the bulb and socket by
turning it counterclockwise, then
pull it straight out.

WARNING: Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep
out of children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base

and do not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated.

Install the new bulb in reverse order.

Replacing HID Headlamp Bulbs (If Equipped)

The low beam headlamps on your vehicle use a “high intensity discharge”
source. These lamps operate at a high voltage. When the bulb is burned
out, the bulb and starter capsule assembly must be replaced by your
authorized dealer.

Replacing Front Parking Lamp, Turn Signal, and Side Marker Bulbs

1. Make sure that the headlamp control is in the off position and open
the hood.

2. Remove the pushpin that holds
the air deflector/protective cover
from the upper inboard corner of
the lamp.

3. Loosen the three retaining bolts
(two at top of lamp, one at lower
inboard corner).

4. Once the three retaining bolts
have been removed, slide the
headlamp assembly forward,

disconnecting the two snap attachments at the fender.
