Of course they are replaceable but not just the bulbs. You have to replace the lamp assembly which you should be able to find at your local auto parts store.

I (and a few others here) replaced the bulbs on the 93-97 headlights and installed the Hyperwhite HID Bulbs. Take the headlight housing out and get yourself a set of channel locks, or pliers. Hold the glass housing firmly in one hand and get a good grip of the rear of the bulb with the pliers, turn slowly to remove the bulb. The bulb is plastic welded inside of the housing, and comes out relatively easy. Replace the new upgraded 9006 & 9007 bulbs in the old glass housings. I used JB Weld to hold the new bulbs securely in place, but you could probably get away with Hight Temp Silicone. The bulbs get very hot, so you need something that'll hold it in place when they heat up.
** Remember** Don't touch the new replacement bulbs with your hands.

I used the PIAA, we have like a community garage at my boy's house and he had a set left over from some stuff he probably did, so they were free. You are right they do suck but now I know how easy it is and you can't beat free with a bat. I will try something a bit more extravagant next time, maybe yours.....How much were the bulbs?-235/4517 Chrome Mondera Solaris<br />-Hornet remote start-keyless entry<br />-Pioneer 8400/CD/MP3<br />-2 Audiobahn 10\'s in custom box<br />-Flowmaster exhaust-SLP CAI-*180<br /><br />Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity....Tony from \"Snatch\"Comment
