[plzhelpmeiamnew]

does anyone know of a pair of headlights that will last a rather long time, mine just died last night( i work at night), i had them since 2007 is that a short or long time.

secondly the roof lights, the two small switch lights that u can move around abit, they are dead aswell, where can i get the little bulbs for them and how can i install them myself, do i need any tools to change my headlights and the little bulb lights

You don't need any tools to change said bulbs. The roof ones will unclip and the headlights will do the same.

New bulbs can be bought from SuperBarn or Repcheap.

just common sense, pry it out from the edge till it pops out, don't even need to use a screw driver really

am i trying to take off the right thing or do i take off the the entire plastic thing that surrounds

Just pull off the entire thing. I always just used my fingers/fingernails to get behind it, it shouldn't be too hard, then unclip it and then the bulb holder twists out and you need a T10 bulb (same as parkers bulb). Get some superbright LEDs in there and you'll be laughing, they'll never die and will have much better light.

Light globe won't melt superglue.
