Angry sylvania's on 92 ES

could someone please give me specific instructions on how to install sylvania silverstar 9006's on my low beams for a 92 es300. i think i have the basic idea of how to install the bulb, it's getting to the bulb that's the problem. the location is pretty deep especially on the passenger side.

ya, space is tight, but the drive side is pretty easy to do, enough space there. just disconnect and twist the bulb and pull out, then replace the new bulb. for the passenger side i unscrewed the washer fluid tank and lifted up to make some room to take out the bulb. another way is just to pull out the headlamp assembly. it's really easy to do, remove the black plastic that covers the front and unscrew the three bolts that hold the assembly in place and pull out towards you.

nothing needs to be unscrew on or around the bulb to get it out. just push the clip on the power cord down and pull it out of the bulb socket. then turn the bulb, i forgot if it's counterclockwise or clockwise, if it doesn't move by twisting it counter, then twist clockwise =)

remember not to touch the bulb itself, as oil from your hands will burn it out
