How do you replace the headlights on a 1997 Subaru Impreza wagon?

Answer 1

Whoever wrote that you need to buy an entirely new headlight assmebely was not very well informed, nor very clever as it is very, very easy.

1) Open the hood.

2) Unplug the wire going to the back of the heald light.

3) Remove the rubber housing covering the light build, use a screwdriver to pry it.

4) There is a little spring (vshaped that starggels around the back of the bulb) that hold the bulb in place, squeeze both sides of that spring and pull it forward. (The bottom part of that spring is attahced, it'll just swing down and out of the way.)

5) Pull out the old bulb.

6) Put the new build in, flip the spring back in place, replace the rubber piece, conncect the wire and drive happily and safley!
