How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 1998 Nissan Maxima?

Open the hood and find the electrical lead into the headlamp: that plugs directly into the bulb, which is screwed into the headlamp. You just need to remove the plastic shield over the back of the headlamp to gain access, unplug the electrical lead, and unscrew the bulb. Replace the bulb, reattach the lead, and reinstall the shield. A 10-minute job!

You have to remove the dashboard, then remove the instrument cluster. On the back of the cluster, you'll find that you can unscrew the bulbs from the back and replace them. I've done it myself on my own 99 Sunfire --- CanadianCynosure

How do you replace the headlight bulb for a 1997 Sebring convertable?

there are a couple mounting screws that hold the headlamp assembly on, unscrew them and the headlamp assembly should come out... and then you pull the connector off the headlamp by pulling up gently on the locking tabs and pulling back at the same time. then twist the locking ring, remove the old lamp and dispose of, replace w/new lamp and reverse directions. the lamp should only fit in the holder one way and there are notches in the headlamp assembly to make you insert it that way. some people with smaller hands can do this without removing the headlamp assembly but i have some bearclaws so i have to take the lamp out to replace the lightbulbs.


How do you remove the headlamp assembly on a 2003 Subaru Forester for changing the light bulbs inside the assembly?

I have a 1999 Forester, but I imagine the 2003 is similar in this regard. You don't actually need to remove the headlamp to replace the bulb. On my car, I unplug the wire from the bulb at the back of the headlamp, remove the large rubber piece around the back of the bulb, unclip the clips that hold the bulb in place, remove and replace. Cheers! Mark This is a good answer and is so just as stated. Thanks Mark! RicT

How do you replace a headlamp on VW cabriolet?

Make sure the headlights have been off for at least 45 minutes before you attempt to replace one of them. Remove the wiring harness on the back of the headlamp you wish to replace. Next, turn the weather cover clockwise and remove it. Inside the assembly, you'll see some retaining clips on the socket. They need to be released. Next, slide the socket out of the assembly and remove the bulb. Insert the new bulb, put the socket back into the assembly, and replace the clips. Put the weather cap back on and reattach the wiring harness.
