Default H3 Headlight Bulb Replacement

I just got new bulbs for my 2006 H3 in the mail today and I have no idea how to replace them. If anybody has any instructions or anything to help me that would be great.

If you are talking about the main headlight bulb (H13)
Grab plastic ears and twist and pull. make sure the old bulb has the "O" ring on the removed bulb. If not, you need to remove the old O ring from headlight housing, it does stick sometimes
Harness pulls of back of H13 bulb/base

Didn't you ask this question a couple of weeks ago ?

A few weeks ago I asked what type of headlight I should get and I got the bulb. So you say I need to twist off the clear plastic cover on the headlight to get to the bulb?

no not the clear plastic cover you see from the outside. on the inside, pop the hood and look on the inside were the back of the headlight is, thats the plastic piece you want to twist and pull

No, not the front clear cover.
Read the above posts. You remove each headlight bulb from inside engine bay

Geezy Christmas,

Step 1, Put lights back in box

Step 2, Put box back in mail

Step 3 sell the Hummer.....

Not funny at all, people who own cars and just get in, turn key, get to destination, turn off, remove key, get out.....................

Read your manual, it's in there,..........................

If he was serious, I was being helpful.
If he was kidding, I was playing along
