Step 1
Remove your Contour's front grille. You can do this
by raising the hood and removing two screws that are located on top of
the grille.
Step 2
Remove the headlight assembly. The headlight assembly is held into the
front of your Contour by three screws. Two screws will be located on
top of the assembly, and one on the bottom.
Step 3
Replace the headlight assembly, if necessary. If you are only changing
individual bulbs, make sure you replace the correct bulbs. Each
assembly holds three light bulbs, including the bright, dim and turn
signal bulbs.
Step4
Replace the headlight assembly and reattach the three screws to hold it in place.
Step5
Replace the front grille of your Contour and the two screws that hold it onto the front of the car.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
