Inside the front wheel well directly in line with the headlight is a plastic cover. Once removed it gives easy acess to the back of the headlight.

Get some Arctic Blue the globe has a very light tint of blue but it is a nice white light & replace both.

Good Luck Dean,

It took me a couple of hours to sort out how to do it?

and being stubborn I did not ask, should have got my son to do it in the first place while we were at his work at Chrysler Frankston.

Once you have done it once it is like riding a bike, you never forget.

Re: Headlight globe replacement?? 2 Years, 9 Months ago  
Check the Operating Manual Dot - says in there what type of globes are needed for each light in and out of the car (Page 114 in my book)... Main Headlight Low Beam is a "H7" - I took the old one out and took it in and just said "It's H7" at Supercheap and the guy knew exactly where to find them! lol (They were low on stock of globes at the time and none left on the shelf- only the "top shelf" stuff behind the counter LoL They only had 1 left

While I was there I spotted the 'looks clear' indicator light that blinks orange - might go back and get it for the front indicators!?
