View Full Version : How hard is it to change headlights with a brushguard?

GaSouthern1 09-10-2003, 08:57 PM If you have a modular guard you may be able to just take off the one side of the guard that you need to take off. If you have a one peice you have your work cut out for you, you will have to take it off. MattStarr 09-10-2003, 09:07 PM I got me a one-piece...... Cant you get to the bulb from the back, like near the battery and airbox? Im not replacing the headlamp unit... just the bulbs. Alec 09-10-2003, 09:09 PM Then it's all under the hood, we don't have sealed headlamp units. MattStarr 09-10-2003, 09:13 PM Alec Then it's all under the hood, we don't have sealed headlamp units What does that mean... im confused now Hokie 09-10-2003, 09:18 PM It means the lens/housing stays in the truck.. you just pull the bulb out from the back (IE near the battery and the air box) and no you don't have to pull the battery or the airbox, you just gently get your arm in there and twist of the plastic lock nut and pull the bulb out... And when putting the new bulb in.. DO NOT touch the glass otherwise you will blow your nice new bulb. MattStarr 09-10-2003, 09:25 PM I know not to touch the bulb.... but why is GASOUTHRN1 saying i have to take my brushguard off?????? im confused.. i have many different people telling me different things... Alec 09-10-2003, 09:26 PM Probably because he thought you were trying to change the entire unit, not just the bulb. MattStarr 09-10-2003, 09:30 PM Ah... i gotcha.... thanks for the tips... ill buy the bulbs tom....... didnt someone say that SS will make the fog light bulbs that come out in OCT to match???? i think alec mentioned it or something Hokie 09-10-2003, 10:25 PM Originally posted by MattStarr but why is GASOUTHRN1 saying i have to take my brushguard off??????
