For headlight housings of the models manufactured after 1997, one has to loosen the headlight housing assembly by turning the four-arm ring a quarter and pulling the headlight housing off the base. Manipulate the bulb vertically without twisting and when replacing the bulb, ensure one doesn't touch the bulb with bare hands ensuring the flat side of the plastic base of the bulb is up. Bring the socket locating tabs into the corresponding slots in the plastic base and snap the socket into the base having the base mounting flange touching the socket. Insert the retaining ring and wiggle it clockwise until it locks into place against the stop; replace the headlight housing in 1997 and later models.
