Request pic for where angel eye bulb goes in....

[Yvette]

I have Euro OEM xenon headlight, but need to change the all the bulbs.
Can anyone post pic of inside their headlight where the angel eye bulb goes in?

I am asking because the previous owner have modified the headlight and I can't figure it out where the bulb goes in.

Here is a video that should help:

I have seen this video, but it doesnt clearly shows which bulb where you get it out from..
how many bulb should there be? 2 bulbs or 3 bulbs inside the housing? I am asking this dumb questions, because I only see 2 bulb inserts only.

Hey Jin,
not sure if this is what you meant but i circled the caps that i took off to reach the angel eye bulbs

thanks Howard, this is what I was looking for.
mine looks bit different from your picture, I assume mine is missing with the cap??
I used smallest wrench I have but this thing is so smaller than I thought...
once it opens it up, this is where you pop your angel eye H8 bulb in it?

Unless the euro headlights are different, I'm pretty sure there is a MUCH easier way to remove the headlight covers.

On the back side of the headlights you'll find two large metal bars that clip the rear headlight cover in place.

-Feel around, you'll see how they work. The outer bars will be pushed outwards (towards the side fenders) and the inner bars will be pushed towards the center line of the car.

-Use a flashlight and identify the two slots where the clips on the bottom of the headlight covers slide in. You'll need to use this info later.

-Pull the covers up and out, and the angel eye bulb location will be the one closest to the cover (the most rearward)

-Change the bulb. I forget which was they turn, but this is very simple. Be careful not to break the little plastic clips on the bulb harness

-Slot the plastic pieces on the cover back into their respective slots to reinstall. Make sure all four (2 on each headlight) are slotted in properly before putting the medal bar back in place.



This might take you 15-20 minutes the first time, but the second time it'll take you no more than 5 minutes. good luck!

I found it out, I feel so dumb now,
I thought they use separate slot for angel eye bulb,
but it was just same as others..... thanks for the advice guys.
