    I am trying to replace a headlamp bulb on my 2008 Prius. I can't figure out how to get to it from the rear of the lamp. Looks really tight, and the mainual doesn't give a good picture.

    SeaWolf,

    I haven't posted or read much for quite a while. I remember that you had an excellent post regarding headlight replacement on Gen II's, and I can't find it now. What happened to it?

    Valde3, thanks for the helpful videos.

    SeaWolf, I searched for your post several times, and was unable to locate it on my own - thanks for giving me the new link. I am concerned that nobody else will be able to benefit from that post if they can't find it - the videos Valde3 provided are good but your post went into more helpful detail. Thanks again -

    Ken
