I just changed a cracked foglight for my 2011 Murano. It took some work to remove the casing. I was able to remove the mud covers from the wheel well and from there I remove the front cover that was fastened in three location points. Once the cover came off I had one screw to remove that holds the casing in place. I actually did use the bulb that was undamaged. I was afraid the buld that came with the lens may be different in appearance. It worked just fine. I know it is a different vehicle, so as removing it may be quite different. I spent some time searching on the interent and was able to make my own decisions on what worked best. On another note, someone mentioned that this lens was plastic... it is not. It is glass, it is exactly what Nissan has used.

Remove prior to using. If you don't remove them, they will obstruct the light from the bulbs negating the benefits of having the extra lighting, plus the heat from the light will melt the lens cover.

Yes it fits perfectly and you can easily install it.there are two metal pins one on the top of the headlight and on on the side if you pull them out you can pull the entire headlight out to replace the bulb. Just don't touch the bulb without gloves so you don't burn it out.

It isn't worth trying to take the lens off the metal. I only needed the lens too, but the whole thing changes with two screws. Just take the bulb out, take the two screws lose or out and put the new lens in place and put the screws back in, put the bulb back in and your done.

Hi,The plastic cover arrived totally cracked in half. I was going to return it, but my husband got a hold of it and tried to glue it. That did not work. He went to the "big box store" and found a cover that would fit with the light bulb clip part. It is working fine over the light bulb in the middle of the ceiling. If the light has a wall power switch this works fine. If it has a pull string the fixture will be cock-eyed.

There is no separate lens, the entire assembly is effectively a lens. There are replaceable bulbs which are included. One of mine was bad and had to be replaced. The lever which holds the assembly to the car body is tricky, it must be moved (slid) a bit before it will release, as I recall. Look on the 'net for replacement instructions.

I just replaced one myself, you want to use the 78mm. First shut the power off to the unit. It will require a light weight glove or napkin as you do not want to touch the bulb with your fingers as your skin oils will eventually destroy the bulb, a phillips head screw driver and a standard flat head screw driver to open the lens cover. Replacing the bulb is a snap, you just have to push the old bulb to one side or the other as the light sockets are spring loaded. Set one side in the socket and lightly push it inward and then lock it in to the other socket, secure your lens and restore the power to your unit and test your light.

Hmmm... it's looks like a permanent friction fit. I tried to lightly pull it apart, but it doesn't seem to want to do that. If this thing popped open, you should probably try to glue it back together, unless it's still returnable. Note that the head unit is adjustable , as a sort of cheap ratchet. You will probably want to make sure that is still functional.

You can reach under to pull the bulb out or untwist the screw to remove the hood. They are easy to replace.

It will last a long time if you take the time to keep the lens clean every 3 or 4 months using plastic protection wipe which has UV protection. Note on most plastic headlight lens, it was painted with a clear coat of UV protected paint at the factory to keep the plastic from dry cracks. What you are doing here is removing the coating as it usable life have expired and begin to deteriorated. If you don't protect the lens it will eventually start to have small hairline crack and that will be irreversible and the Headlight will have to be replace. It would be best if you have it professionally repainted with a high quality UV protected clear coat. But it will almost cause as much as replacing the headlight itself.

I have a 2005 Infinity G35 Coupe and I used the H7 bulbs which required me to very slightly modify the bulb to get it to fit on my headlight. You basically need to trim the plastic sides of the bulb casing but it's really easy. I'm assuming your getting a whole new HID kit, which isn't difficult to install as well.

Not sure which model SubZero I have, but there is a white plastic cover that is wedged into the top of the unit, covering the 4 bulbs. there is a groove in the back of that cover, so i could pull it forward with both hands, by using the flex in the plastic, to release it from the frame that it sits in. It took some elbow grease, and was hard to put back in completely.

The manual says: "Insert a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot at one end of the light lens. Carefully pry the lens out." I would use a rag of some kind of padding between the lens and the housing when prying. Good luck!

I was not able to find just a cover, it was only lens broken on mine also, had to buy the whole light. Sorry...

I have had several bulb burnouts, likely because they are halogen and burn hotter. To replace the bulb, first remove the glass cover by twisting the cover to unlock. This is not easy and I spent a while trying to dislodge the glass cover. Once the cover is removed, the bulb screws out like any normal bulb and can be replaced easily. The problem for me was I could not locate the bulb at a local warehouse, so I order several online, now I have replacements on hand. Halogen JD type, Mini Candelabra E11 100 Watt

The outer diffusing plastic around the bulb just pops off. Try grasping it between your fingers near the bottom of the unit and squeezing that plastic shroud , then pull it off. Be careful as the edges are a little sharp. It might need a little wiggling, especially if it's already installed under a cabinet, but you'll get it. To replace the bulb itself, just twist the bulb at either end until the terminals at each end of the bulb line up with the slot at the top of each socket. You'll feel some resistance as the electrical contacts are springs. Then gently raise the bulb out and install a new one in reverse.

The grille is held in place by the lightbulb "housing/plate". Remove the bulb, unscrew the housing, feed it thru the center of the grille, then screw the housing back in place. The lens snaps on/off the grille.
