Replace Your Blazer Headlight Housing (2020 - 2022) 

Good luck!

It’s sad, but true. I don’t even think it’s possible to replace a single headlight bulb in the 2019+ Silverados. At least, I haven’t seen anyone show how to do it. It’s looking like, if you have a headlight go out on the Silverados, you have to replace the entire headlight housing. I could be wrong, but I have yet to see evident otherwise.

Thanks for enlightening the Chevy "haters" who have their heads up their arse.

The only issue my sister has had with her blazer is the thermostat got stuck open, but that was an easy replacement. This headlight housing replacement was not because of an issue with the vehicle. Unfortunately, I have no info about bulb replacements.

The housing broke. The clear plastic was broken on the front of the housing.

The standard headlights on all 2019-2022 Blazers are HID. LED became an option on 2020 models, but the default is HID.

​@@SouthpawGarageI have a 2022 blazer rs and accidentally bought LEDs instead of brighter HIDs. Will it be just fine if I replace the factory HIDs for the LEDs I accidentally bought?

​@snoopy95520 I have a 2021 blazer and the factory HID headlights are crap. I put LEDs in my 2015 sierra and they are a ton brighter. I'd stick with the LEDs.

That’s a good point about the LED headlights. I basically have to hope my Silverado headlights never go out because I don’t want to know what it would cost if I have a bulb go out since I can’t just replace a simple bulb.

Right! I was looking for a part number for the factory LED headlight bulbs for this vehicle, I even searched for a tutorial on how to change them and I couldn’t find either of those anywhere. That’s when I realized they’re all one piece. Again, it sucks that these newer vehicles are becoming less and less DIY friendly. The worst part is that if you get caught by police driving with one headlight and get a ticket, you’re gonna have to sacrifice an arm and a leg to get it repaired before your court date. But those lights should last a very long time because they consume much less energy than the HID and halogen bulbs.

Because my sister damaged her headlight housing. The plastic on the front was busted, so the whole thing had to be replaced.

So glad and greatful for this comment cuz I have one and I was like whoaaaaaaa😂😂

The Blazers do not have fog lights. They have two light sections on each side. 1: the running light that is directly below the hood. 2: the headlight & blinker housing that is in the front fascia.

@@SouthpawGarage Well, the lower housing bezel. Can the plastic trim be removed from the front?

I don’t believe so. I didn’t remove the one on this Blazer, but based on what I can find, it looks like the bezel snaps in from the back side of the bumper.

@SouthpawGarage bummer. I have one that's cracked and was going to install the 3m carbon fiber covers but they don't fit over the factory bezels.

I have no idea. I didn’t have to replace any cords. I just swapped the headlight housing and reconnected everything.

Yea. She definitely needs some new tires.

GM apparently doesn’t really care about the whole “honor the past to get to the future” thing. I’ve always been a GM guy, but Ford is doing a much better job with honoring the name sake for their vehicles, in my opinion.

​@@SouthpawGarage not really, ford messed up with the mustang mach e

@@batmoblazer I agree with you there. I do think Ford did a good job when they brought back the Bronco, though. Chevy missed the Blazer by a long shot.

@@batmoblazer You forgot the "LIGHTNING" !

@@SouthpawGarage In case you haven't heard, the Bronco "Sport" has HORRIBLE reliability along with the Escape because they share the same platform. For the whole story, check Consumer Reports reliability ratings. As for the "Regular" Bronco (big one), it's based on the Explorer platform, the Explorer is the "poster child" for a sh*tload of problems! My advice, get a Toyota or Honda. You will be glad you did!

Changing the light bulb is much easier than this. This is for changing the entire headlight housing.

But it is still a terrible design.

Agreed. GM has really been pushing themselves farther away from me being a fan with a lot of the decisions they have made lately.

Agreed I added a module that makes the drls brighter which is where the headlights should have been placed I also added another module to remove the stupid start stop feature which is more annoying than what it so-called saves on gas@@SouthpawGarage

The auto start/stop is definitely annoying. After I added the wireless charging center console to my truck, it stopped doing the auto start/stop thing. I’m not sure why adding the wireless charging console effect it, but I’m glad it’s not doing it anymore. Lol

@@SouthpawGarage can you make a video on how you added that if its on the blazer please.

I haven’t put one in a Blazer. I put it in my Silverado. I don’t think my sister would want me pulling her Blazer’s console apart to add the wireless charger. 😂

I agree 100%

???

The tires are turned in the video to access the area behind the inner fender lining on the driver side. If the front end was out of alignment so bad that the tires are turned that much, that’s not just an alignment fix… something would be seriously wrong.

@@SouthpawGarage are there any aftermarket conversion that are brighter than factory hid bulbs ??

I know that Auxito offers an LED replacement for the Blazer's HID bulbs. You can use my affiliate link (www.auxito.com/5lGW25em7Kpq3q) and code STHPAWLEDX12 to get 15% off an order. I am sure there are other options available on the market as well if you want to look around and compare options. Auxito is a brand that I have been very happy with and use in pretty much every one of my vehicles.

They’ve been making so many terrible design choices lately.

I didn’t just replace the bulb. I replaced the entire headlight housing.

Okay stopped once I saw you going to the front of the car. The have plug and play LED blue and white color bulbs that work really well.

Agree!

Ever replaced a battery in a Chrysler? I just replaced one in a 2015 journey. Tire off, and the inner fender. Nothing good about any of them these days.
