Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing or maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts, installed correctly, that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video, we'll be replacing the headlight on this Ford Explorer. This is a '98. It's the same procedure for a '95 to '01. We cover both just changing the bulb and replacing the whole assembly as well. Only tools you'll need are a Phillips screwdriver and a flat blade screwdriver.
On this Explorer, it is pretty easy. There's a little door that you push a little tab. Comes up like that. If you are just looking to service your light bulb, you can see that kind of round ring right in there. You just reach your hand down in, twist that ring till it loosens up and you can pull it back, and then you can pull your headlight out. Then you can pull your headlight up like that. Pull your headlight up, then you got to grab hold of this piece, thing here, or you can just use a screwdriver like that. Pull your bulb off. You want to transfer this ring onto your new bulb. Plug it back in. You're going to want to do your best not to touch the bulb as you're putting it down back in here. It's pretty tough. As you work it down and in, push it back against the air box. It does only go on a certain way, so you kind of twist it a little bit to get it to fit right. Work your ring back around. Twist it right on and lock in.
If you need to replace your whole assembly because it got broken, remove the two screws here and here. Pull up on the bottom and out. You can push out behind there too. Bring this out. Twist off this bulb. This one twists, and then this one over here you can pull the ears back. When I say the ears I mean these little things. Pull them back and off. Kind of reach right in here behind and work this one out by pushing down with your thumb or a screwdriver, right on the little teeth that latch it in right there. Once you have this one released, once you get the inside released, then there's a little tab right here. Since I got my big head of hair into the shot, here's a close-up of what you're actually doing. You're working a screwdriver in and releasing that clip. You can press down and release the top adjuster. Then you can pry out on this bottom one. I've already got it, so it came out a little easier. The light kind of comes up and out. I'm going to take off my let's use my screwdriver. Your headlight's out.
Now that you have the light out, with this last adjuster, the little tabs are on the side, so I'm basically just reaching in with a finger. I'm wedging my finger on the outside to push the tab in, and then I'm pushing the other tab on the other side. Here are the little tabs you're pushing in. Basically, you will wedge your finger on that side to get that one and then this one's pretty easy to press in. Then you can pull it out.
Here's our new light from 1A Auto, the old light. See, the new one's going to be nice and clear and bright. You can do this if you want to freshen up the front end of your car or if you had a light broken. What we're going to do, actually, is we're just going to kind of set it up by making these all equal. I'm going to measure the distance from here to here, make it the same there to there. That just gives me a good preliminary aim. It is the same thing with my other two adjusters. Just kind of make sure that everything is similar.
On this one you want to swing this adjustor up and around. Plug your harness in. You want to put this up and in. Stays right in this diagonal, this little triangle groove here. Make sure your light bulb for the parking light is up on top and that this clip here is getting onto that slot there, so we got to get over in there, like that. Then this clip has to slide into those grooves there. There's a bottom to this inside one as well. You're going to push it over. It slides in, that's sliding in. That's up. Then push it right in. Take the plastic off.
Compliment the new light with a new parking light assembly. We'll plug that in. Put that in and twist. Put this one in and twist. As you're going to put this in, make sure this connector is not turned too far up or too far down. It needs to be kind of straight because it goes into a little relief here. Make sure our little, there are little pins that line up with grommets in the grille back. Make sure they're lined up. Push in. Lots of new screws up here.
Interesting view. Look what that new set of lights did for that side. Then there's the old side. Kind of a before on the right and an after on the left.

In this video, we'll be showing you how to replace the grille on this '98 Explorer. The only tools you'll need are a Phillips screwdriver, a regular screwdriver and a 10 millimeter socket and ratchet to switch over the emblem.
On this Explorer, it's pretty easy. There's a little door that you push a little tab, comes up like that. Remove these two screws, here and here. Pull up on the bottom and out from behind there, too, bring this out, twist off this bulb, this one twists. This one over here, you can pull the ears back, when I say ears, I mean this little things, pull them back and off. Once you've removed your parking lights, you're going to remove six screws. There's one on each side behind the parking lights, and then two on top for each side, there, there, there, there and the one on the other side, behind the parking light.
Once those screws are removed, you can see there's a clip here, at each side that you're going to pull the plastic out of, and there's clips right in behind the grille, in the middle. What you want to do is give a firm tug, tug and reach in behind, tug, tug and lift up on this here. Make sure you don't take any lights with you, and there's your grille and bezel out. If you're looking to just change one of these bezels, there are four screws on each side. You're also going to want to remove your emblem and transfer it to the new grille. Use a 10 millimeter socket. This is the new grille with new emblem.
I'm going to just speed up through this as I'm just getting all four of these little screws started for the bezel to the grille. All four of them started first, get it lined up correctly, and then tighten them up. The other thing you can see is the new bezels came with new clips. As far as the clips go, our grille did come with new ones, but I actually prefer using the old ones. All you have to do is, kind of push them through and they drop out the bottom. These clips have a little slot in them, and on the grille, there's a little ridge on one side. Push the clip on and then use a little screwdriver, push each side onto the grille.
Now we can take our new assembly, pull the wires through here, pull the wires through on the far side here. Put it up in, get it lined up, lift this plastic up, and slide it under. Lift up, slide it under. Push the top in; make sure it's pretty well lined up here. Make sure that's lined up there, make sure this one's lined up over here, as far as the clips go. Check, make sure your bottom clips are in, push them in. To get these other two clips in here, you want to look under here and make sure, you'll probably have to press down on your grille a little bit, and line them up. You can see them right under here. Press down and then in. Now we can put our six screws in. You may notice that we complemented our new grille with a new set of headlights, and we'll just do the same thing with the parking lights here.

In this video we're going to show you how to service the parking light both the bulbs and replace the whole unit on this '98 Explorer same as any '95 to '01. The only tool you'll need is a Phillips screwdriver. Servicing your parking lights on this Explorer is pretty easy. There's a little door that you push a little tab it comes up like that. Then there are two Phillip screws. Here and here. Remove those screws. Now you want to lift up and then with your finger here I'm just going to reach in and pushing on the light. Then you lift it up over a lift there then it comes out and then behind me you can service the bulbs. Mostly they'd twist. This lights here as well. Twist down. Come out. A little tough though. Maybe you have to unplug first. The same thing with this one, I guess. Unplug and twist out. Then these bulbs just come out. Bottom one is the new one from 1A Auto. Top one is the original. You can see the new one from 1A Auto is going to mount all the same and obviously it's a little brighter.
You can be replacing this if you just want to freshen up the front of your car. More if your old one got into a little incident or something like that. There we go, mount up the new one. Bulbs plug right in. Then we'll plug in this top signal. Then it goes in and twist. Plug in this bottom one. Then we plug in this one. As you go and put this in make sure this connector is not turned too far up or too far down it needs to be straight as it goes into a little relief here. Now as you put them in you want to make sure there are pins here. I'll show you on the old one here. There's pins right here and they line up and go into these. You want them clear. There's also an additional one over here. So, you want to put that up in and look in there, make sure you're getting those pins in the right spot. Make sure over here. You put your screws in. Then flap that back down over. After replacing that you can see how badly we're in need of a new headlight.
