How to replace right head light of Nissan Sentra when "bright" head light still works?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:What year? That makes a huge difference. There are some years (basically any Sentra pre-2000, I believe) that have only one dual-element bulb per headlight; if either the high or low beam goes out, you replace the entire bulb. And on the first-gen (‘82–86) it is even more fun.
