Changing Headlight Bulbs


Recommended Posts

HI,

Wonder if anybody can point me in the right direction.

Is there a guide on how to change the headlight bulbs on the IS200?

I'm wanting to put some nightbreakers in.

Looks very fidly and read that you have to remove the headlights and move this and that??

Thanks in advance

No you don't have to remove the headlights to change a bulb.

You just pull them out of the back if the light. Twist and pull... Very very easy. The passenger side is fiddly if you have big hands because the ecu and windscreen washer fluid bottle are in the way.

Even if you're fitting HID's there's no need to remove the actual light. Finding a place for the ballasts is your only problem

Don't talk to me about euro car-parts....Idiots....Sent me 2 cree hb4 bulbs and one was broken, took photo as required before a replacement sent, They then sent a hb4 HId bulb as a replacement...completely wrong type.

Ordered two normal bulbs wrong ones sent, Finally i had a hid kit off them and 2 wks later ballasts knackered. Can't be bothered with them any more,,,bought elsewhere.

Just replaced my bulbs at lunchtime.

It might be worth mentioning - especially for the passenger side - it's easier to remove the bulb with the connector still in place. You can then use a small screwdriver to release the connector. I spent a while trying to remove the connector before the bulb before it dawned on me...
