The headlights have a lock ring holding them in. I think that you have
to turn it counter clockwise to release it. Then pull the headlight
socket out of the mount it will be kind of tight due to the rubber
orings around the bulbs. Swap the bulbs then push the sucket back into
the headlight mount. Then turn the ring to lovck it back in. As for the
driving light they just need to have a 1/4 tun and they come out of the
mount.
