What happens here
Slide the rubber boot back over the installed bulb, ensuring a tight seal around the bulb's base and the headlight housing. The gap in the rubber boot, which resembles a triangle or 'Triforce' shape, should be oriented towards the top to allow space for the wiring harness. Finally, reconnect the electrical wiring harness to the terminals of the new headlight bulb, ensuring it clicks securely into place.
Goal: Seal the headlight assembly and restore electrical connection to the new bulb.
