LOOK IN THE OWNERS MANUAL IN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT,LOOK IN THE BACK INDEX OF MANUAL, LOOK UP BULB REPLACEMENT.IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO REPLACE FOG LIGHT BULB.USE LATEX WHEN CHANGING FOG LIGHT BULBS, BECAUSE LIGHT BULBS IS HALOGEN IF TOUCH WITH FINGERS OR HANDS, OILS FROM HANDS WILL CAUSE HALOGEN OVERHEAT AND BLOW OUT.

    The manual says "replacing fog lights may be difficult so see your Subaru Dealer". Does anyone out there have experience in changing these lights?

I need to replace the drivers side low beam on my 2008 subaru tribeca

The High and low beams are all in the same bulb. You have to reach in behind the light in the engine compartment and undo the retaining collar and pull it out and then pull the bulb assembly out if it separates from the collar. Unplug the bulb and replace it. I usually stop at Walmart and use the little box they have there to find the proper bulb for the vehicle, in most cases they are the less costly of the places you can get the bulbs.

How do I change the brake lamp on my '06 tribeca? Can't find any access. Larry

There should be access from inside, right behing the light itself. Open the back hatch, and look to either side (bad bulb side) and see if there is a small "door" that you can access it. If not, and it's not externally accessable, than you may need to pull the inside panel side off get to it.

How do I change a low beam headlight on an 08 Subaru Tribeca?

We have an 05 Legacy and I've done this. Tribeca should be the same way: Look through the engine bay behind the light, you can locate the position by following the wires which actually connect to the bulb assembly. The bulb assembly ought to be removable with a 1/4-1/2 turn and pull motion. Be sure to not touch the replacement bulb with your bare hands. Your Subaru service ought to help you with this and not charge you......

Subaru tribeca 2006 i cannot turn on headlights there are 3 lights on each side of the car, i can turn on the 2 smaller lights but the main headlight only goes on when i turn on flash. any ideas? i bought...

Sounds like the low beam bulbs are burned out, I have heard of a lot of over seas Tribecas having head and tail light problems. I would definitely check those bulbs, that will the cheapest start.

Subaru tribeca lights

DO NOT buy bulbs anywhere other than SUBARU as replacement. They are specifically long life bulbs. Yes, availlable in other brands in other stores and more cost efficient but not in the long run..
