Headlight Help Please

Post by Misszoeyray » Thu Nov 15, 2007 5:51 am

I am trying to change the drives side head light on my 2003 baja... I got the light and socket out of there home and now i need some advice.

When I try and disconect ffrom the cabels so i would just be holding the socket with bulb it wont come off. So I read the book and it suggest that if i turn the bulb counter clock wise it well release and i can switch out. Wont do it the bulb is in this metal jacket and it wont move. I use a flat screw driver to try and make it and all it did was bend the metal jacket. Now I am not sure if I broke it worse? I am looking for validation of how to change the headlight buld and or snap shots showing me or a better diagram???

HELP... I have to be on the road in the morning and dont want to spend money having someone eles do it......

might be a bayonet type fitting...depends on the US spec and if we are talking parker/day lights (think Volvos)
