RE: HELP!! Changing Headlights
i dont personally own a 6, but have a good knowledge of cars, and my two cents would be to tell you #1 absolutely do not touch the bulb with your bare hands wear latex gloves or use a towel of sorts. #2 almost every vehicle i have ever worked on has a way to remove the entire headlight assembly if necessary (usually just 3-4 bolts). the HID lights that come in those cars if i'm not mistaken are extremely expensive as well as the projector headlamp assembly. instead of having the average joe changing the bulbs the dealer would rather have it done there to prevent something from being damaged. my point being, if there is not enough clearance to pull the bulb from the back of the assembly, unbolt the assembly from the car, and be extremely careful.........once getting the assembly back into the car, make sure to adjust it, so that you are not blinding people and go from there. Hope this helps, and if I am incorrect, let me know and i will take my knowledge back over to the truck part of the forum
