Raise headlights and click switch back one click to shut off headlights and keep buckets up. Remove plastic shroud around buckets (three screws). Reach in behind assemby and you will feel the socket, give it 1/4 turn and the bulb with the socket should pop out. Simply replace bulb and reverse the steps. should take you 15 minutes max, very simple.
