I'm not sure if i'm doing this correctly, i removed the cap by twisting it, however, I can't seem to get the bulb out. Is it supposed to be twisted or pulled...or....?

On another note, has anyone used a non-brandname bulb to replace the primary lights? i was thinking of using some from ebay versus the Sylvania, due to the price. Any suggestions?

 

Hi. I recently experienced this.

There is a plastic cap over a metal cap (don't know how else to describe it sorry...) They can both be removed by twisting them counter clock wise. Once the metal cap is removed you can see the bulb.

But there are metal clips holding the bulb in place. Here is the trick: towards the bottom of the bulb, you can feel the actual clips which you pinch. Apply enough pressure when you pinch them, and by pressing it in and out you can free the clips. From there, the bulbs are able to be removed. Replace the bulb, but when you do this pull the clips to the top (otherwise they block the path where the bulb goes in). Once the bulb is in, put the clips down and reverse the process by pinching them and pressing down on them.

Hope this helps...

 

Good call WB^^

Only thing I can add is avoid cheap ebay lights, they can cause electrical issues and will often flicker off and on. Hit up some of our vendors to get good quality at a fair price, you don't need to spend $200 to get good quality.

 

on some of the cars I've had, I've used cheaper bulbs in them instead of Osram or Phillips, and they worked perfectly fine. I think I've probably had 1 or 2 bulbs go bad ever

 

Those bulbs are a pain in the a$$. I just recently changed my factory fog lights to the yellow fog lights. They look good but there a b!tch to put in.
