(I think this is for the 1999 model, certainly close to this year)
Read the manual on page 213. Here is my version:
1. Pop the hood
2. Look straight down onto the light. Shift your gaze six inches back, so you are looking down the back side of the frame element. You will see two vertical black plastic strips, with vertical slots. Pull each one up by the tab sticking up at the top. They should come up and out easily.
3. The headlight assembly was attached with two plugs sticking through the black strips that you removed. With these strips removed, the plugs are free to retract. Pull the headlight assembly straight out towards the front, just a few inches. It should come out easily. It will still be attached to the electrical wiring.
4. Detach the three electrical connectors (high-beam, low-beam, blinker). Some may have a plastic tab that needs to be depressed.
5. Now remove the headlight assembly completely.
To replace the high-beam (marked 9005) or low-beam (marked 9006), twist the black L-shaped bulb base to the left, then pull it out. Remove the new bulb from its packaging, taking care not to touch the glass with your fingers (oil and other residue may cause it to burn out prematurely), put it in and twist it to the right. Re-attach all the correct electrical wiring, insert the headlight assembly, pushing the two plugs through to the back, then slide the black plastic strips down until they lock the rubber plugs into place firmly.
Hope this helps.
