Access the headlight bulb from under the hood. There should be a clip (screw on or snap) holding the bulb in place. Carefully unplug the socket from bulb and remove clip and slide bulb out. Installation is reverse of removal. Be careful NOT to touch the glass surface of the new bulb, as the oils from skin can cause it to shatter when heated.

Do Pore Strips Suitable for Your Skin?
Blackheads clear up strips are only suitable for people who have a lot of blackheads, but otherwise, people who used to use blackhead strips will have a very dry, irritated or acne-prone skin in the end. So change your blackheads strips to ARINOBlackhead removal. That has no side effects for your skin. If you are unsure whether the strips irritate the skin - just cut off a little piece of a strip and try out on a small skin part. If no reddening or other irritation occurs after 24 hours, a whole strip can be glued to the skin as described above.

How can I remove tail light lens?

David, Taillight bulb replacement: this is an involved procedure that you will probably want to let your dealer do. I do NOT have the steps listed here but here is a tool that you will find very helpful if you decide to do it yourself:
  • "A # 12 Snap On nut driver shortened about an inch will get the hard to reach nut. Snap On is the only one I found that was hollow & would slide over the 4" stud." quote from TBN member
  • Other tools may be found that will work.
remove the nuts that hold the tail lamp in place and gently pull from bracket.

We own a 1997 ford f250 4x4 and the head light

The headlight bulb is a fairly simple replace. If involves removing the old light by reaching behind the hedlight where the socket with the wires goes into the headlight. It usually is just a quarter turn or a squeeze and turn kind of motion. Once the socket is out of the headlight then you will be able to simply pull the bulb out and replace with a new one...NOTE...do not touch the new headlight bulb with your fingers...we have an oil that is naturally produced in our skin and can make your new bulb fail prematurally. Use a paper towel to install the new bulb or a gloved hand.

I want to change my headlights on a 1997 grand marquis

The headlights are a sealed unit. All you can change is the bulb, which is done from the rear of the headlight. You squeeze the nylon lock on the bulb socket, turn it counter clock wise, and pull the socket out. Then pull the bulb, and replace it. Be careful not to touch the new bulb with bare fingers. The natural oil on your fingers will cause premature bulb failure.
