Re: Changeing headlights

there are 3 screws on each headlight. 2 on the top of the radiator support and 1 on the sides of the headlights. remove those screws, take headlight assembly out, disconnect wires, remove rubber boot, undo the wire clip, pull out bulb, insert new bulb and then follow these directions backwards.

But on the Aveo you need to remove the headlight pods to change the side marker and directional lights. If one of those goes out, I'd replace them all at the same time.
you dont have to remove the headlights to remove the sidemarkers. all you need to do with that is take some duct tape and wrap it around the base of the side marker, and either push it forwards or backwards (cant remember which) and it will poop right off.
