Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing and 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're going to show you headlight removal and installation on this '04 Ford Ranger, pretty much the same for any '93 to present Ranger and no tools are necessary. Headlights on these Ford Rangers are really quite nicely designed and pretty easy. There are two tabs that you pull up on right back here. Once you have those tabs up, just pull your light forward. Now, here's the bulb. You can access the bulb easily. Pull this protector off and then your turn signal bulb, you twist, and it comes out, and your light is out. Obviously, you can service the bulbs.
The headlight bulb, you twist this, pull it out, and then you can pull the bulb out. Here's our original light, and here's the new light from 1A Auto. Now, obviously if your original light has been broken or something, you're going to want to replace it with a new one. You can also see, this truck doesn't have many miles on it, so the lens isn't too cloudy or faded, but if you drive your truck a lot of miles or in sandy conditions, these lenses can get pretty chipped up and clouded. A nice easy way to fix that is to just put a new set of lights in. You can see our lights are going to mount in the same. They have all the same connectors and everything so everything is going to go in just like the original.
One tip is before you put the new light in, just try and match it up with the distance. You can see that this adjuster is pretty close to the light there, so just preliminarily aim it. Take your new light and just try and get that just about the same distance. For now, obviously this light is fine, so we're going to put it back in the truck. Installing is just the reverse of the procedure. Put your signal in first, turn and lock, plug your light bulb in, and then carefully place it back in there.
I'm kind of looking down to make sure that all the adjusters are going into their holes properly. The lower one here is just a little bit off. There we go. Down there, just make sure that is all the way through. Then on this side, make sure that one there and the one down below, which is hard to see. Make sure those are all the way in. Push it really good. Push down on your tabs. You can see that mine's not in very well. Put it back up here. Push down and mount it nice and secure.

Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks!
In this video, we're going to be working with our 2001 Ford Ranger. We're going to show you how to remove and replace your headlight assembly, or you can follow these same steps to access the turn signal and headlight bulb if you need to change them. We're going to be working on the passenger's side, but this information is the same for the driver.

Here are the items you'll need for this repair: 5.5mm, ratchet, and extensions.
Remove the three 5 1/2 millimeter bolts on the top cover for the headlight with a socket, ratchet, and extension. Then remove the plastic cover from the top of the headlight. There's a metal tab on the inside here under that cover. We'll lift up there. Don't lock it all the way up. You want to let it sit at that float point there. Get the one on the opposite side here. Same thing: lift up and hit that balance point. You might have to wiggle them a little if the headlight is not coming out smoothly.
Twist the sockets for the turn signal counterclockwise and the collar for the headlight spins off counterclockwise. We'll place our headlight assembly off to the side.
Now, if you're just in here to change the bulbs, from this point the headlight disconnects from this electrical connector. You want to lift up on those tabs. Pull the assembly out of the socket.
New bulb snaps in. Be sure that this collar sits between the socket and the bulb. Turn signal simply pulls straight out. Your new bulb pops straight in.
To give you a better idea of how these headlight retainers work, you'll see the hole here where our plastic retainer is going to slide in on the back of the headlight. This is with that slide in the floating position. If you pull too far up, the metal comes through the opening and will still hold the bottom of the retainer. Let's see: key hole, when you slide down, that thinner portion locks over the top. When we hit this nice middle point here is when our headlight comes out nice and smooth.
Install the sockets into your new headlight. Socket goes in, and a quarter turn clockwise locks it in place. The headlight pops in. The collar goes over the tabs and locks on clockwise.
Now, we'll line up these pins into the openings. Again, you might have to wiggle those slides a little to get them to go in. Once they're over, lock the tab back down into place and ensure your headlight is in straight and secure. Reinstall the plastic cover over the top of the headlight. Tighten it down with a socket, ratchet, and extension with your 5 1/2 millimeter screws.
Thanks for tuning in. We hope this video helped you out. Next time you need parts for your car, please visit 1AAuto.com. Also check out our other helpful how-to and diagnosis videos.

In this video we will replace the parking light on this 2004 Ford Ranger, the same as any '01 to '07 Ranger. You start out by, to get to the park lights, you remove the head lights. There are 2 tabs that you pull up on right back here. Once you have those tabs up, just pull your light forward. Here's the bulb. You can access the bulb easily. Pull this connector off. Then, your turn signal bulb, you twist, and it comes out, and your light is out.
Once you have your headlight out, remove those two 6 mm bolts. It has a little pin that holds it in right there. You can twist and remove that.
Here's our original light. Here's our new light from 1A Auto. You can see they're exactly the same. If you're looking to freshen your lights up, to freshen your truck up, it will do well, all of those scratches. Obviously, if you get in a little skirmish, with a rock, or a little bit of a fender bender, it takes out your marker light, this is a perfect replacement. All the mounting points are the same, and it's going to go in there exactly the same.
Obviously, to put it back on is the reversal of the procedure. Put your light in. Twist. Set it in. Put in the 6mm bolts.
Installing is the reverse of the procedure. Put your signal in first, turn and lock. Plug your light bulb in. Then carefully place it back in there. I'm kind of looking down to make sure all the adjusters are going to their holes properly. This middle one, here, is a little bit off. There we go. So, down there, just make sure that is all the way through. On this side, make sure that one there, and the one down below, which is hard to see. Just make sure those are all the way in. Push in real good. Push down on your tabs. You can see this one's not in very well. Pull back up. Push down. Now, it's in nice and secure.
