    It's a good idea to get a repair manual if your going to work on your own vehicle, and it's never been easier or less expensive to get a good one for your vehicle. Try http://bit.ly/alldata_repair_manuals or http://bit.ly/mitchell_repair_manuals_online and you can have one in minutes, for less than $30.00.
    Read up on the job you are about to perform, it will show you what special tools you will need and you will be much better prepared to tackle any job on your vehicle.

    dont buy a book to replace a bulb. you have to pull the assembly out on each side. there should be a screw on one side and a clip-like peg on the other. i did it about a year ago and i can remember that i had to fight to get the driver side out but it was just because the peg was stubborn. your ownwers manual will tell you how to do it
