I want to change the headlight bulb on passenger side headlight because low beam is burnt out actually I would like to put in 2 new bulbs
I can not seem to get electrical connector off though is there some push in clips on the connector
Also would it be easy enough to pull whole headlight assembly to access connector a little bit easier (especially on battery side)
Also how do you get dust cover off just pull on the corner somewhere and peel it off
Any help would be appreciated I searched forum and could not find any help so I thought I would post

 

The connectors is a PAIN to get off... Use fingers on 1 hand to support the bulb in the lamp (keep from pulling out and goofing retainer wire) and wiggle/work connector off base of bulb...

Removing the lamp from car is best, as you can see right there to release retainer, swap bulb and make sure bulb sit in lamp correctly, lock retainer in place, rubber cover, then put lamp back to car.. dont go wild tightening the bolts, just snug, plug connector back to bulb.

 

I cant seem to get the electrical connector off are there push in tabs on it somewhere...
I am also considering replacing the whole headlight assembly (scratched and cloudy)so I started to take out headlight assembly I took out the one hex head screw on the left top of headlight is there another screw...because I could hardly get it to budge. This was on passenger side where I was working...I tried to pull from whole headlight assembly from the left towards the middle of the car but theres got to be something still holding it
I am batting zero on this one I start at it then give up only to return again!

 

with not much luck

 

OK bassackwards is the way I would describe how I replaced headlight bulbs in 02 Accent
Took off two screws holding headlight assembly
Turned out directional bulb from headlight assembly
Peeled back rubber dust cover
Undid spring clip and pulled out bulb still connected to 3 prong connector
Held in tabs on each side of connector and pulled and pulled until it finally came loose
On one of them I held tabs on connector in and wedged screwdriver between old bulb
And connector to get it to come loose
Now seeing the shape of the headlight assembly I will be replacing two headlight assemblies because the plastic tabs and back housing is kind of decomposing and of course the lens part is very cloudy and hazy and I can pick up a pair of used ones with out cloudiness for about $56 shipped
By the way I used Wagner Brite Light 9003 Bulbs they are a little brighter and wider and I got them for $18 and change including shipping cheaper then Sylvania bulbs at brandsport.com
I thought I’d post this since it took me a while to figure the easiest or hardest way to get replacement bulbs installed
