Very Helpful Video. It's a good idea to put Dielectric grease on the bulb/connector before reinstalling.

If you have big hands like me, I found that it's way easier to just go ahead and take a few and remove the battery. It gives you a lot more room to work with. Also, after reading comments on multiple videos, using pliers on the plastic housing to turn really helped to remove the bulb.

As others have said removing it is a pain. I used standard pliers and lightly gripped the housing and turned just enough to break the seal then finished with my hand. Watch for one thing - When I went to install the new one I could not get it to lock in place no matter how hard I tried. I finally realize the old O-ring around the base of the bulb had stayed behind in the opening preventing the new one from locking. Removed the old O-ring and bada bing.

OMG, another "how to change headlights" that is an example of dumb and stupid. This is how to change a light bulb but says headlight. Yes, this is a self promotion by a mechanic and he shows us he can't even communicate. Changing the driver's side headlight assembly in a 2008 ford escape is a nightmare. Cody can't even get the camera to show what he is talking about.

From personal experience, do not overtighten the bottom button bolt into the hinge. I did torque it too much and the white metal threads just exploded.

Yes, sorry for the late reply, I ended up using a screw driver and my hand or pliers to turn it. Have to watch your hand when prying with a screwdriver because it can slip and jab your hand. Using pliers or another screwdriver you can keep your hands out of the way and get the added leverage to turn the build. Again sorry for the late reply, stay safe 🥰

@@DonnelleGriffin hello, try and use a pair of pliers or a screwdriver if you are careful. Wear gloves and try not to slip and hurt your hand.

Ok, looks like the whole headlight assembly has to come out. There are two nuts on the top and two nuts on the back lower side of the assembly. The whole thing comes out, be careful and watch the wires.
