Headlight mod
Bought some 85W high beam bulbs and wondered if there is any trick to installing them. If somebody has changed out their bulbs, could you please give me some instructions on getting to the factory assemblies. Also, do you have to readjust the aim for the headlights after changing the bulbs? Thanks.

Re: Headlight mod (BILLSC5)
There is no trick as long as you are replacing the originals with a bulb of the same configuration i.e. same base and size. I presume these are replacement bulbs with a somewhat highter wattage. Just remove the black plastic shroud that goes around the headlamp. It requires the removal of 3 small philips head screws. You can now access the bulbs. Assuming you are using halogen bulbs wipe them down with alcohol to remove any oil from fingerprints or they will burn out prematurely. I don't see a need to reaim them.
