rubbing alcohol before being used.

2. Open the hood.
3. Remove the bulb cover.
4. Turn the bulb base counterclockwise and remove
it.
5. Disconnect the electrical connector.
Reverse steps to reinstall bulb(s).
Replacing HID headlamp bulbs (if equipped)
The headlamps on your vehicle use a “high intensity discharge” source.
These lamps operate at a high voltage. When the bulb is burned out, the
bulb and starter capsule assembly must be replaced by your authorized
dealer.
