: Installing headlight bulbs

Since many will be getting new bulbs I thought I would post this:

There is a easy way to get to the headlight bulbs to replace them.
1. First, remember to not touch the glass on the bulbs. Doing so may cause early failure of the bulbs. I use clean white cotton gloves when installing the bulbs.
2. Turn the steering wheel all the way to one side.
3. Look in the fender well at the plastic liner. Directly behind the headlight you will find a Phillips screw. This screw is in a recess in the fender liner. Remove this one screw.
4. The fender liner can now be easily pulled back to get access to the bulbs.
5. Disconnect the wiring plug from the bulb.
6. The bulb can now be rotated to remove.
7. Reverse the procedure to install the new bulb.

My bulbs are in. Maybe on the '05's there is one screw that does the trick, but on my '04, there was one screw (where you said it was above), a clip, two screws toward the front of the guard and one screw on the bottom connected to the facia. Regardless - easy out and in. Lights now have a nice bright blue hue to them. - Jim

What kind of bulbs have you upgraded to?
I am looking to do so but don't know which brands to go with.

Thanks.

I have the Silverstars in mine and love them. What a big difference they make. I replaced the high and low beams and fog lamps too. Highly recommended!!!

What is the bulb type for the low beams? Also, has anyone bought the PIAA bulbs for their truck?

Just curious.

I have Nokya Artic Whites for both hi (9005) and lo (9006). Very bright and affordable.

Is it true the 04's have more than one screw?
