Change of headlight bulb

Unread post by sirjonip »

Is it possible to take out the complete headlighthousing?
Ive unscrewed a plasticscrew and i can see that it looks like you can like turn the complete lamp outside.
Is this the case?

On what vehicle?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

Be careful as some of these controls are for the headlamp adjustment.

What is it you are trying to achieve - Ok, I see from the title you are trying to change a bulb - no you should not need to remove the headlamp, and if you do, you may need to have it calibrated again before going on the road at night in case you have completely changed the beam pattern.
