How you you get to the bulb next to the headlight but in the same unit??? Mine burnt out but I can't figure it out how to replace it.

It will be a lot easier if you remove the headlights :D. Seriously, that's what I did a couple of years ago after I cut most of my fingers trying to change that bulb!

I can get my fingers down there no problem. Now what? Twist, pull, push???

Let you hand go limp and cram it down there at a funny angle. It was hard but I did it. I don't think I could get the passenger side though since there is that wierd thing with all the tubs comming out of it. Fortunatly only the driver side burnt out.

You guys think these lights suck to change... try changing out the bulbs on a 300zx twin turbo. There is absolutely NO room whatsoever. I thought these little bulbs sucked to change. They are pretty easy in comparison :(

twist your hand... not your hips...
i bet you got a ton of funky stares from your neighbors by dancing in front of your car with your hand in the engine bay.
what i did with my clearance bulbs: snipped the wire- routed them down to under the bumper and installed some fog lights. they went on first- then the headlights would come on when turning on the lights to the car. not bad. they're gone now though. can't run foglights AND a loud stereo...
