  • chain wax oxidizes over time. it may get sticky in months ahead

  • @hks85 Good to know something silicone based would have been great, but I just used what I had.

  • I just did a headlight bulb in my roommate's 1999 beetle for her, I don't know if it's different year to year but I didn't have to use a single tool. The release lever is accessible without moving anything, the airbox and battery aren't in the way at all. No tools, takes about 3 minutes.

  • @mckean83 You are correct. Mine was already loose, and I want it more visible for the video.

  • Hello Mr! Thank you so very much for this video. My dad and I couldn't figure out how to replace the "low" bulb haha, but then we watched your video and our eyes were opened. Great vid, thanks : D

  • @elblackyreinara Glad it helped. They can be a little tricky, so I thought I would share with others. Take care, Scott
