Difficulty: Beginner · About 20 min · Toyota Camry

Replace a headlight bulb or the full headlight assembly on a 1992-1994 Toyota Camry.

Steps

1. Handle the new bulbs carefully

   Avoid touching the bulb's glass with your fingers, since skin oil can burn into it and foul the light; clean it with rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth if that happens.

2. Swap the bulb

   Open the hood and reach behind the headlight assembly, twist and pull the old bulb out, push its tab to unclip it from the harness, then reverse the steps to install the new one.

3. Remove the side marker light

   Remove the Phillips screw securing it, then pry it out with a flat blade screwdriver and a rag.

4. Remove the grille

   Use pliers to pop its clips, then set it aside.

5. Remove the old headlight assembly

   Unbolt its four bolts with a 10mm socket and ratchet.

6. Install the new headlight assembly

   Bolt the four 10mm bolts back in, clip the grille back into place and secure its Phillips screws, clip the side marker light back in, then refasten its screw with a Phillips screwdriver.

Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
