There are 2 large 7/16ths screws (both colored black), both on the top of the headlight assembly. Remove both of them, then pull the assembly out towards the front of the car. You might have to pull out on the bottom of the assembly first to remove it. Once the assembly is removed, look at the back of it...The Low beam bulb is the one closest to the yellow signal bulb. The other one, furthest away from the signal bulb is the high beam. Remove the wire clip from the bulb you want to change (you might have to use a small screwdriver to release the plastic catch). Once the wiring is removed, turn the light socket counterclockwise (looking at the back of the assembly) to remove the bulb from the assembly. Just reverse the procedure to put the new bulb into the assembly. When done, put the assembly back in place and replace the two long screws.
