Headlamp Bulb Replacement

[Sully]

Ok. How does anyone with average or larger size hands change the front passenger low beam headlight bulb? I have an '06 LR3 and need to replace it ASAP. I removed the back cover with the rubber gasket and disconnected the wiring harness. How do you get the bulb out? There kinda feels like there is a clip next to the bulb. Does this come into play? Does it just rotate counter clockwise about an 1/8th like most or something different?

Boy do I feel inept.

Remove the entire fixture, it comes out really easy. Pop off the grill then there are 2 pull up tabs on either side of the light fixture

That's interesting. I would have thought it needed to be changed from the back without removing the front. Didn't realize the entire headlamp needed to be removed to replace the bulb.

That is because you are assuming it is a bigger deal to remove the whole fixture then just the bulb.

It is the easiest bulb change of any car I ever had.
