Need to change headlight bulb in gmc envoy 2003

Drivers side- stick your hand behind the headlight and remove the rubber cover, and twist out the light.

Passenger side- remove the air cleaner top, and move the air cleaner out of the way. You now have complete access to this side to remove the rubber boot covering the bulb.

2003 GMC Envoy Low beam headlights will not work.

I would start by checking the headlight relay and headlight fuse.  You also may wanna check to make sure the bulbs aren't blown out.  If those parts check out to be fine and in working order, you may need to replace the turn signal assembly in the steering column.  This part controls the hi/low beams.  This may sound crazy but, when GM wired their older trucks, they wired the headlights to go from the battery, to the hi/low beam switch, then to the headlight switch (to the left of the steering wheel) then out to the light bulbs.  You can kind of test to see if this part is good by making a fist and (with your headlights on) gently hitting the plastic cover for your steering column that is right behind your actual steering wheel.  This could cause your headlights to flicker on and off.  It's not 100% guarenteed that this method will work, but it may.

How to replace the headlights on my 2003 GMC envoy.

The headlights on the envoy are the easiest parts of the car to repair. You just pull the two tabs at the top of the headlights, screw out the bulb containers and you are good to go
