Hello,
Most headlights these days are replaced from the backside of the headlight. It is a replaceable small bulg that is held into the plastic reflector of the heah light.

To replace the bulb you must disconnect the connector on the bulb, then turn the bulb a little and it comes out of the headlight reflector. When replaceing be care full to not touch the cgalss of the new bulb. The oil from your fingers will cause the bulb to run hot and burn out early.

Now here is an easier solution, go to Autozone and ask if they would help you install a couple new bulbs..I bet they will help for free.

Good luck

Inspect/Replace-I don't think that removing the bumper is necessary. There can be slight variations in procedure from one model to another when replacing headlights. For instance, on some models the turn signal light assembly must be removed before the headlight can be replaced. Overall, however, the procedure does not differ much from the following typical instructions.
Make sure the replacement bulb is the same type and part number as the one that is being replaced.

  • Remove the headlight bezel retaining screws. Remove the bezel. If necessary, disconnect the turn signal lamp wires.
  • Remove the retaining ring screws from one or both lights.
  • Remove the retaining rings.
  • Remove the light from the housing. Disconnect the wiring connector from the back of the light.
  • Push the wiring connector onto the prongs at the rear of the new light.
  • Place the new light in the headlight housing. Position it so the embossed number in the light lens is on the top.
  • Place the retaining ring over the light and install the retaining ring screws. Tighten them slightly.
  • Check the aim of the headlight and adjust it, if necessary.
  • Install the headlight bezel. Secure it with the retaining screws.
  • Connect the turn signal lamp wiring (if it was disconnected).

Why does my 2002 jaguar x type run so roughly and the engine light keeps flashing on and it says cruise control not available, won't pick up power

There is a hose that runs across the top of the engine, just underneath the air box. Examine that hose carefully and you will probably find a hole in it. Usually either where the engine has burned through or abraded it. A new replacement looks a bit different as it has ridges that take it off the top cover.

Jaguar x type 2004 front bumper

Front bumper removal is quite easy. To start with there is 4 10mm bolts one by each headlamp ( with the bonnet open) remov them. There is 3 T30 screws that hold the under tray to the subframe and there is also a small corner trim that is on the bumper side of the front wheel arch here is 3 T30 screws holding them on on each side. Finally remove the front wheel arch lining so you can get acsess to the inside of the bumper. You will then see a 10mm bolt towards the top of the bumper that is reversed to you. Remove then the bumper should then just pull away.

Becareful not to damage the fog lamp harness upon removal
