Step 2

              Remove cables attached to bulbs

There is a red latch to release the hold on the connection. Push that down then remove the cable attaching to the right turn signal’s bulb. Note You can remove just the cable or the bulb depending on your replacement.
The next cable is attached to main bulb in your headlight. Twist the black circle around the cord counter clockwise and you can remove the bulb OR just unclip the latch holding the cable in place. Note My replacement came with bulbs so I just took the cable off.

Step 4

              Attach new passenger headlight

Now reattach all the cables careful by doing these instructions in reverse.
Use the black handle, on top of the headlight, to help you align the holes to bolt the headlight in correctly. Note I screwed them in a little in a time clockwise to align it properly and not to cross thread the bolts.
Test the lights to assure they are coming on and enjoy your new headlight.
