View Full Version : 7th gen celica headlight replacement
Yo beyond-ers.
Im new on here and I'm just figuring the site out. Ive got a 2001 Celica GT and need to replace headlamp bulbs. I cant figure out how to get them lights out. I think the whole front end has to come off. If anyones done this or knows how to could you let me know. Thankzzzz

Did you search Google? I'm yet to find a simple question to which google can not provide an answer.

You don't have to take the entire headlight out - they should just twist out of the assembly. Look on the back of the headlight for a grey plastic piece that the bulb is coming out of - it will twist out. You might have to take the engine plastics off first (I can't remember).

These cars are real pain when it comes to replacing headlight bulbs, which in it's own should be a really simple task. Drivers side, your going to have to do some finger flexing. First unplug the connector to the bulb, then remove the weather rubber boot, remove the spring retainer clip to the bulb, then remove the bulb.
Passenger, grab a pen and locate the passenger side engine bay cover. Locate all the clips to that cover and press the middle of the clip until it pops downward, then you should be able to pull it out by hand. (this is the cover that covers the power steering fluid resevoir and the coolant resevoir.) To remove the bulb, follow the drivers bulb instructions.
Good luck!

Yeah the headlights are a TOTAL pain to replace. The drivers side is easier than the passenger side. They don't twist theres a little metal clip you have to undo....
