BE AWARE THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE IS EASIER TO INSTALL THAN THE DRIVER'S SIDE. ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE YOU MAY HAVE TO MAKE ROOM TO REMOVE AND REINSTALL THE BULB.RAISE THE HOOD. LOOK BEHIND THE HEADLIGHT, THERE IS A PLUG WITH A CONNECTOR. DISCONNECT IT. NOW TAKE THE LITTLE METAL SPRING THING AND PINCH IT, THAT HOLDS THE BULB IN PLACE. TAKE OUT THE BULB, PUT THE NEW ONE IN. FOLD THAT LITTLE METAL THING OVER AND PINCH INTO PLACE. CONNECT CONNECTOR AND RUBBER PLUG AND THAT'S IT.

SOURCE: replacing my headlight bulb in my kia amanit 2004

  1. Open the hood of your KIA Amanti and look behind the headlight that has gone out. Locate the round knob on the back of the headlight.
  2. Turn the knob counterclockwise 1/4 of a turn and gently remove it from the back of the headlight. Carefully remove the electrical cable within the headlight housing that is attached to the back of the headlight bulb.
  3. Locate the metal clip that holds the light bulb in place by pushing the clip arm straight in and sliding it down. Remove the bulb from the headlight housing.
  4. Replace the old headlight bulb with new bulb. Secure it by sliding the metal clip up to hold the bulb in place. Reattach the electrical cable and replace the round knob to the back of the headlight housing.
  5. Turn on the headlights to verify that they are in working order.

SOURCE: How do you replace the headlight bulb on a Toyota Corolla 2003

You can and it is not difficult, there are two bolts holding the top of the headlight to the body just over the radiator and a couple of screws holding the indicato in place, but you can access the back of the light fitting without doing so . It is a bit of a squeeze on the battery side.

SOURCE: Toyota Sienna 2004 Headlight Problem

If you have the HID bulbs, and there is moisture in the bottom of the assembly, the high voltage box at the bottom will not work. this requires removing the whole headlamp, removing the circuit board from the bottom and drying out. I have done mine twice before finally finding how water was getting in at the top seam of the lamp assembly. You will have to dis-assemble part of the wheel well and bumper cover to gain access to all the mounting bolts. Best of luck

Can the headlight assembly of a 2004 Toyota Sienna be disassembled to replace a faulty low beam bulb?

The whole bulb will have to be replaced. One bulb has high/low beam. You should be able to access it from behind the light assembly. You should have a locking device at the headlight assembly and be able to pull the assembly out to make it easier.

Replacing Headlight lamps

you are just replacing bulbs not the whole lamp i presume. The bulbs are held in by a ring that turns about a quarter turn counter clockwise to release. Then the bulb will pull out of the lamp housing. Some cars do not give room to do this and you will have to remove objects in the way or take headlamp out of car to achieve

How do you replace a headlight on a 1999 Toyota Rav 4?

Do you mean the entire headlight assembly or just the bulb?
If it's the entire headlamp look at the new one to see where the fastening points are, the grill may have to be removed and also the parking lamp lens, if it's just the bulb it's easy Open your hood look at the backof the headlight assembly and twist the bulb holder ring to release it. Good Luck To You

4Runner headlight has moisture inside. Light works fine

yes. it should be a fairly easy job, just be careful when removing the glass, and make sure you get your headlight re-alligned when it is done, as it will fail its mot if not done.

hope that helps.
