So im trying to save some cash and change out the 3 head lamp bulbs on a 796. Is there a guide on here or does anyone have any insite on where I can find one?

remove the two nuts on the lower triple at the back of the headlight.
slightly lift the light up and you can reach the three bulbs from the back

Ok that was really easy to take off ! I just discovered that  the MY 12 796 monster manual says the High/Low Beam are H7 which is wrong ! The Low beam must be a H4. WTF

Raux

Yep. guess i was expecting they fixed the manual

As I am picking up the 696 for my wife tomorrow I can compare them and see what the differences are if I can get enough time in the garage.
