How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 2001 Toyota Celica GT?

Answer 1

Answer

Look in your owners manual under headlight replacement

This is how I did it on the driver side of the car.The passenger side is similar but you need tools to take off the plastic protecting the passenger side. Take note on how you took it all apart so you know how it all goes back in.

Tools: Hand

Time: 15 mins

Equipment: Halogen replacement bulb

• Unplug power to bulb
• peel back he rubber disc
• carefully pull off rubber disc so it does not get in your way
  
• Unhook the top silver pin (like a thick paper clip) by pressing the engine side of the pin inward and then upward
  
• pull out black base of the bulb along with the bulb itself (note the position of the base)
• pull out bulb from the base and note the orientation
• Put new bulb in black base. WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GLASS WITH YOUR FINGERS
