Hi all. I just purchased a 2000 TJ sports v6 with 100, 000 kms on the clock. Unfortunately it's missing is owner manual :( i have the service book just missing the owner manual. Can anyone suggest where I might find one or where I may begin my search to source one? Apologies if I have overlooked this elsewhere on the forum. Gimme a newbie slap!

I also need to change a headlight lamp (low beam) and I have no clue how it is done :s any pointing in the general vicinity would be greatly appreciated. Cheers :)

I just managed to pick up a operator manual on e Bay for only $10. Score :) when the other listings were $30-$60 a $10 find made me a happy lady :)

Which side head light needs replacing? Drivers or passenger side? For Drivers side, you will need to remove the washer bottle I think. Passenger side is easier. You will need to remove the rubber boot and then unplug the loom. It requires some muscle to pinch and pull. You then remove the spring clip that holds the bulb. Undo that remove the bulb and remember how it is aligned. Put new bulb in, making sure not to touch the glass and then assemble in reverse order.

Thanks Vlad.
It's the passenger side. My other half had a quick look for me when I picked up a new bulb the other day. He wasn't quite sure and do decided to ask his dad who has an 01 Magna. He has over 300,000 on it and has not needed to change one! I think we'll tackle this on the weekend.
