Headlight Sitting wire

[DRG]

Mazda Protege 01

This is probably really dumb! (shrug) I was trying to switch the light bulbs and since I couldnt figure an easy way to get the light bulb out i decided to unscrew the sitting wire and so the whole thing came off and now that i am trying to put it back in i cant figure it out... Is it possible for anyone to post a couple of pics of the sitting wire and how is place in the headlight i know its tough because there is a lot of stuff on the way but if i could get the one on the driver side that would be of big HELP ! also a quick intruction of how i am suppose to put the lightbulb in i read on another thread that i am suppose to twist it (eyeballs)?.


Thank you

there is suppose to be a metal wire that goes across the back of the light. you would push that down and it would unhinge. then you twist the light tp the left i think and it should come right out. replace bulb and put back, i am not sure what you mean by sitting wire.

Just look at your passenger side headlight and put the wires back in the exact opposite (more of a left/right mirror I guess) of that. If that doesn't help I'm sure somebody can get a pic up. I should be in my engine bay tonight after work anyways so I can snap a pic for u then if you still are having issues. Will just be with my phone's camera tho.
