How do I change a head light on a 1999 lumina

If you just need to change the headlamp bulb, your owners manual has that info. If you don't have an owners manual go to my.gm.com

Type in year--make--model, hit go, click on owners manual/guide, click on pdf file.

If you want to remove headlamp assembly, let me know and I'll post the procedure. I wasn't sure if you just needed to remove bulb or the whole lamp assembly? Don't touch the new bulb with bare hands/fingers, use gloves.

side bulbs, not exactly sure what you mean there.
my 04, page 5-51 in the op. guide says, remove the 2 lens screws
and and whole assy, pulls free and rear has socket and twist it and bam. its out.
but they move them to the Headlight assembly
so in that case, you pretend its a head light access.

i goggle for you and hit 1 was.
Your owner manual will have some instructions.

-Open the hood

-From the engine compartment, remove the black rubber boot
the boot , is the access port, read the manuals ? they cover this.
-loosen the little wire clip (or parts to access HL or side light)

-remove the bulb and unplug it

-Plug in the new bulb and install the new one in reverse. The new light bulb will only fit one way

How to change head lamp bulbs on a 2007 Dodge Dakota TK

Check your owner's manual. To replace headlight bulbs you open the hood and then behind the headlights there is a piece that either twists off or pops off. It will have the headlight wires running thru or under it. Pop or twist this off and you should see the back of the headlight bulb. Pull the bulb out. Slide the old bulb off the connector and being carefull not to touch the glass part of the new bulb (use a clean rag to hold it) as it will hasten the new bulb in burning out if you get grease or oil from your hand on it, stick the new bulb into the connector and repeat the process to install
