Here are some additional tips for changing out the headlights in a 1998 Mitsubishi Montero:
- Be careful not to drop the headlight assembly. It is made of glass and could break if it falls.
- Make sure that the electrical connector is securely connected before reinstalling the headlight assembly.
- If you are replacing both headlights, be sure to do them one at a time so that you do not mix up the electrical connectors.
- If you are having difficulty changing the headlights, you can always consult a qualified mechanic.
