Does anyone know an easy way to replace the front passanger headlamp bulb on a 1995 continental? Do I realy have to remove the whole compressor assembly just to replace the bulb? What about removing the entire lamp itself?

Warpig said:Thanks, I knew there had to be an easier way. My sister lives in Canton....Ford and Lilly. Good luck with the holiday traffic. My sister says it gets pretty bad around there.
It does suck....Ironically enough, I live in a subdivision off of Lilly about a half mile south of Ford......
Replacing that light is a snap.....I have a link to a thread that actually has the diagrams to go with those instructions, but this site won't let me post a link to it.....this site changes the address to www.IAMASPAMMER.com for some lame ass reason.....email me @ j86fierose@yahoo.com if you want the link to the information.
