Disconnect the connector.
Remove the socket cover. CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the bulb with hands or dirty gloves as the bulb may pop after a short time. If the surface does become dirty, clean it with alcohol or thinner, and let it dry thoroughly before Installing.

Unhook the spring securing the bulb, and then remove the bulb. CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the bulb with hands or dirty gloves as the bulb may pop after a short time. If the surface does become dirty, clean it with alcohol or thinner, and let it dry thoroughly before Installing.

Install the spring and sealing cover securely after the bulb replacement, or the lens will be out of focus, or water will get inside the light unit.
