I installed four of these in my 1999 Tradewinds.

I bought them at a local auto parts store for about $10.00 each.

Just remove the fiber glass cover and then the four screws holding the ring around the bulb. The connector under the boot fits with no adjustments required if you don't move the two adjustment screws or the spring.

These are completely sealed but there are others available that have the removable bulbs. I needed new reflectors so these filled the bill nicely. The original ones have the removable bulbs, type #9003 according to the users manual page 12-7. Type H4 is the new part also available at any Auto Parts store if you just need the bulb and not the reflector and are replaceable from the back without removeing anything but the boot and bulb.

Hella bulbs are sized as 200mm

If yours are the same as mine then there not from a Bronco. Here is a link to the 1995 Bronco replacements.

Mine look like this picture.
