There are about 4 bolts to remove off the headlight.. you will need to take the bumper off... So that involves taking all of the bolts off the bottom splash plate, inner well liners... then after you pull the bumper off it will be easy to unbolt the headlight and unhook the harness.

oh wait, what do you mean by globe? bulb?

All i know is one of my headlights aren't working. Not familiar with the lingo.

So your telling me i need to remove the whole front bumper to get to the headlight? Or do i just take apart the inner wheel liner and access it from there?

If you are just going to replace the bulb all you have to do is remove the inner fender cover.

To replace the lower high beam bulb, you need to remove the fender protector.-




In order to replace the upper low beam, the front bumper must be removed in order to remove the headlamp assembly.-






Afterwards, perform an aiming adjustment.-
