SJ1984 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Hello, I was hoping to get some guidance on changing the HID lowlight bulbs in a 2004 RX330. I had no issues accessing the old bulbs and removing them but when I attempted to install the new bulbs I was unable to get them to sit properly in the holder and to get the metal spring clip back in place. Due to the lack of space to work and attempting to reach in blindly to place them correctly I cannot seem to get them in. Which way is the bulb supposed to be oriented? Is the metal bar that runs parallel to the actual glass bulb facing up or down? Apparently I need daintier hands for this job, haha. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

cduluk Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Try holding the bulb in place with one hand (pressing with one finger) and secure the spring clip with another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
