Thanks For Reading This Guys.I was trying to change my headlights bulb,since it burned out.So i went and bought one,go to my garage & find out that i could't get the freaking thing out because it has some short of lock on it,where ur supose to unscrew tha old bulb.I tried turning it all directions & it wouldn't loose,& i don't wanna break it.So i wanted to know if any body out there had some hints for me on how to remove.

-Thank You

lol. same thing for me. because i had stock bulbs and i changed for a jdm blue-ish.

well theres a ring lock. you have to push it in and rotate counter clockwise. counter clock wise as if you were facing it from the inside.
you sorta have to wiggle it. i used mechanic glves to get a better grip and to add a little more force.

once you twist the ring all the way, you should be able to pull out the bulb housing. but you have to be extra careful not to scratch/damage the bulb or it will literally explode.

I had this exact same problem and didn't have a manual. Thank goodness my father in law was able to help me. I never knew before this that there were even locks on headlights. Were you able to get it yet?
