How do I change the headlight assembly in my 00 dodge durango?

The more detailed the better and pics would be awesome!!How do I change the headlight assembly in my 00 dodge durango?look very closely at the headlight the whole thing comes off with corner lamp and turn signals there are three bolts you will need a socket long extension and a ratchet take off the three bolts and then pull the assembly off it will be hard it has a suction bracket after that replace the bulb and do it again to the next sideHow do I change the headlight assembly in my 00 dodge durango?I have done it but didn't take pictures. There are a few screws accessible from the front and then the whole assembly can be pulled off.How do I change the headlight assembly in my 00 dodge durango?There are two methods. 1.) It is possible to maneuvre your hand to the lock ring on each headlight assemble from inside the engine compartment. You must work %26quot;blind%26quot; -- by feel only. The lock ring rotates 1/4 turn to unlock. On the side of the engine with the battery, you must remove the front portion of the plastic battery box. 2.) This method is much easier. Three bolts (one at the top, two on the bottom) that hold the headlight assembly to the vehicle. Look directly at the headlight, and look in the gap between the top of the headlight and the vehicle fender, and also at the gap between the bottom of the headlight and the vehicle bumper. With the aid of a light, you should be able to see all three bolts. Using a socket and an extension to your ratchet, remove the bolts, pull out the headlight assembly, and remove the lock ring. TAKE CARE TO HANDLE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY GENTLY so as to not alter the setting of the headlight in respect to the headlight frame. By taking care, it will not be necessary to have the headlight(s) adjusted (for aim).













Hope that helps and best of luck.
