God bless!How do you change the driving headlight on a 99 pontiac grand am gt?If you look at the headlamp assembly from the top (hood open) you will notice what looks to be a black metal clip approximately 1.5 inches in width and about 4 inches long running vertically at the back of the headlamp. Pulling up on this clip disengages the headlamp assembly therefore allowing you to remove it and then you can access the bulb.

Note: there may be 2 of these clips. Note: do not remove these clips. Only pull them up enough so that a release click can be felt
