Ophidia Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 Hello all, I have a 2012 Limited with factory HIDs, just purchased. The bulbs in it, presumably originals, are somewhat dim and have yellowed as HIDs tend to eventually do. I bought new bulbs, and was starting to change them, but I can't figure out how to pop the wire connector off of the bulbs. There isn't enough room or slack to pull the bulb out with the wire attached, and I can't find a tab or anything to release. There's a metal dover over the connector that I could bend back to see the green plastic plug, but it's still not obvious how to disconnect, and i don't want to ruin anything. I feel dumb having to post for help disconnecting a headlight wire, but I don't want to damage it. Thanks1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ophidia Posted December 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 Never mind. If I'd spent a little more time searching, I would have found it. Here's what I found if anyone else looks and sees this thread: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 you can now opt for LED replacements for HID bulbs if you so please. but there is some wiring (not terrible) for the good ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ophidia Posted December 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 I'm satisfied with the output of the replacement HID bulbs. I'm sort of surprised the originals were still going, you'd think they'd be having trouble striking by now. I guess the capsule is teeny-tiny in them, though. The arc doesn't have very far to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
