the airbox (my car intake is stock) and the other circled this is in the way and i cant get my hands near the bulbs
thanks for any help.... and thanks weq for the pic of ur car which i used
A very quick and basic guide -
For the front left hand side ( in the picture) you can take out the actual airbox to access the back of the globe housing easier - and on the right hand side- the power steering fluid resevior WILL be able to move - simply lightly pull it up out of its place and puish aside.
To remove the globes , pull on the rubber tabs on the grommet/covers on the back of the housing ( that the wires stick out of) - SLOWLY and GENTLY pull off the connectors on both sides- then push in the small clips to release the latch on each globe. Take out , and install in reverse order. BTW pix help- altho it is very straight forward once u have a good look aroudn in the engine bay :)
1 more q while im here, with what/how should handle the bulbs to insure the dont die
thanks for that ben

Nice fresh clean Cotton gloves work very well for this stuff ( bought from Super cheap auto)
Just don't get the bulb dirty
otherwise it will pop within a few mths.

n e one had experiance with these?
just dont touch the class bit, only handle them from the metal part.
i actually found some cotton gloves so i used them....
well i put them in.... and they work, for now
I think any bulb is good apart from the autotechnical crappy lights
$20 and they just seem to pop within a few mths
