Dodge Repair: headlamp bulb replacement, oily surfaces, lamp unit

Question
I have a 2005 Ram 1500 quad, I want to replace the bulbs. how do you take the lamp assy out. I see one trim screw,and two holding screws. when I take them out should the unit pop out. I'm afraid to break it.

Answer
BULB - HEADLAMP
CAUTION: Do not contaminate the bulb glass by touching it with your fingers or by allowing it to contact other oily surfaces. Shortened bulb life will result.





Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the front lamp unit (1) from the front fender. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/FRONT LAMP UNIT - REMOVAL).




Firmly grasp the lock ring (2) that secures the headlamp bulb socket (3) on the back of the front lamp unit housing (1) and rotate it counterclockwise about 30 degrees to unlock it.
Pull the lock ring, socket and bulb straight out from the keyed opening in the housing.
Remove the socket and bulb from the lock ring.
