Toyota Tacoma - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Tacoma N260, MK 2, N270, N220, N240, N250 - Years 2005-2015
Part: Headlight
Operation: How to replace the headlight on a Toyota Tacoma.

In this guide we will find out how to replace the headlight of a Toyota Tacoma. The first step will be the removal of the grill: to do this we will have to unscrew two 10 mm bolts and detach two hooks, as shown at 01: 30 and lift the grill, extracting it from the support. On either side of the lighthouse, near the bumper, there will be another hook to detach; this will allow us to detach the lower joint of the lighthouse. Now we will have to act on the bumper, extracting three hooks on the upper edge and two bolts at the intersection with the headlights. The next area in which to operate will be that of the front tire: we will have to extract a screw in the tire compartment, in the area behind the headlight, move the rubber panel and unscrew the bolt of the headlight itself, shown at 3:15. Finally, the last screws to be removed will be the upper ones, which secure the headlight to the frame of the engine compartment. Once these operations have been carried out, we will be able to disconnect the connectors and remove the piece. Let's replace it with the new one, which we will have to insert carefully so that every part of it fits correctly with the support. At this point all that remains is to proceed with the reassembly and the replacement will be completed.

How to open the seat of a scooter without the key

If we have to open the saddle on a scooter when we do not have the key, we can find the necessary information and useful information on how to move in the description below and also in the video. The saddle is normally opened by inserting the key in the dashboard and pressing the appropriate control. If we do not have the key available, we can still open it by removing the panel which is placed immediately under the saddle where we rest our feet and intercept the opening cable and then pull it manually. This way the saddle will open.
