Maintenance and care 5. Remove the old bulb from its socket by gently pulling it straight back out of the socket. Do not turn the bulb while removing it. To install the new bulb: 1. With the flat side of the bulb's plastic base facing upward, insert the glass end of the bulb into the socket. You may need to turn the bulb left or right to line up the grooves in the plastic base with the tabs in the socket. When the grooves are aligned, push the bulb into the socket until the plastic base contacts the rear of the socket. 2. Slip the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base until it contacts the rear of the socket by rotating it clockwise until you feel a "stop." 3. Push the electrical connector into the rear of the plastic base until it snaps, locking it into position. 4. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work properly. If the headlamp was correctly aligned before you changed the bulb, you should not need to align it again.
