I have a 1999 Hyundai Atoz and the drivers side headlight bulb blew last night. I have had a look in the manual and it says to disconnect the lamp, then remove the rubber seal. How do I disconnect the lamp? There is a thick set of cables that go into the back through the middle of the seal and I presume this is what I need to disconnect. Do I pull it? Do I twist it? I tried tugging it but nothing happened. Don't want to pull it if something will break!!! Please help as it is very urgent it gets replaced. Cheers. :w00t: Keywords: hyundai, atoz, atos, headlight, head lamp, headlamp, light, lamp This post has been edited by dbfcs: Apr 27 2006, 02:22 AM
