How Do I Do This?

[roostingmx 10+ year member]

I want to replace to bulbs in my headlights in my 03 explorer.

Heres the problem.

I have no idea how to do it.

Do I have to take out the whole headlight and then put the new bulb in?

Or is there a way I can do it otherwise?

The bulb does pull out the back but the bumb is a nasty bish to get at.

Theres no room to get my hand in there.

Unscrew the back of the bulb, disconnect wires, pull bulb out, put new bulb in place, reconnect wires and screw it back in. Done.

Details should be in your owners manual.

Not all bulbs come out the back. I know at least on my MAzda 6, the halogen bulbs are only recommended to be changed by the dealer according to the owners manual, which is bullshit. But on mine you need to take off the whole headlight. It's a PITA.
