I love that you started with opening the car hood and didn’t cut away when you struggled getting something out. And showed it working at the end!!!

@VirarAutomotive 2 года назад

Thank you. Glad you found it useful! I try my best to show the entire process in detail. :)

@randysmithRKMC Год назад

I watched the video, and realized how to do it without all the fidgeting around. Once the bolts and push pins are out, lift the headlight assembly about 1/4 inch and pop it forward. Done! Thanks for posting this. It's great.

ALERT: I planned to replace the bulbs per the video. Took my car to my mechanic for brake work. Dennis saw the bulbs on the seat. When done he said "No Charge" for the bulbs. He showed me how he reached back, removed the round covers, and replaced both. Not sure if his hands are smaller than normal. He said no need to remove the headlight. Took him 5 mins.

@VirarAutomotive 2 года назад

Wow! That would make the job much much easier. All the other vehicles I have made headlight bulb replacement on, you can change the bulbs without taking the headlight out. This was the only one where I couldn't figure out how to and thus had to get the entire headlight assembly. Can you share with us how Dennis did it?

@charlesroberts2089 2 года назад

@@VirarAutomotive He showed me he reached back and unscrewed the circle plate. Small guy. Maybe small hands.

@frankbush8368 Год назад

I just checked mine out to do that.. there is 1/2" between the fuse box and the light. There's no room for it come out even if your hands happened to be 1/4" thick. So I really have know idea what you're talking about!

@kathey1981 Год назад

I was wondering why you couldn't just do it without taking the headlight out. If I have to do that I'm changing every bulb in there lol

@richardcorrea737 Год назад

Thank you for this video. I also learned that you don’t need to take out the plastic pics to remove the headlight. Just make sure you insert the top edge part of the headlight first when reinstalling. Then nudge it in. That’s it.

Great video. Very concise yet thorough. I may have been lucky, but I suspect watching a few different videos and this one in particular made the process very short--suspiciously short! (kudos; it's the best of all other videos on this topic). The video showed the two bottom plastic clips into which the headlight assembly fit. I noticed the clips were raw plastic, so I thought a spray of silicone lubricant on the bottom clips on both the assembly and those in the car would help. And it did. I couldn't even get the telltale click sound (which worried me, but after tugging again and again on the headlight assembly with still not clicking sound, I felt confident that the clips had engaged) The three 10mm and 12mm bolt holes aligned perfectly. I also put a tiny bit of silicon lubricant on the horizontal plastic flap (left) and this seemed to help as well. So, thank you for a very informative video--and to my can of silicon lubricant for saving me a lot of heartache! BTW, my 2014 Elantra SE's manual showed the high beam bulb as H1 (one prong), but the one already installed (OEM) was an H7 (two prongs), so I will have to remove the assembly again when I have the correct bulb. Fortunately, the current one is still good--it's the original OEM bulb. I wanted to change it because I didn't want to go through the hassle again, but the gods decided otherwise!

@@VirarAutomotive It did! I called my local Hyundai Repair Center to ask if it was a twist on/off or if there was a locking mechanism and they said "we can't tell you that". So, much appreciated. Once I saw how it worked I wasn't afraid of breaking it by applying too much pressure.

@VirarAutomotive 2 года назад

@goutamsahay 3 года назад

I am looking to upgrade my Hyundai Elantra 2013, H27W fog light to compatible 881 LED fog light. Do i need to add cambus for led bulbs or just plug and play led bulbs would do? Similarly for headlights H1 and H11, does elantra 2013 need cambus or decoder Thank you!

@VirarAutomotive 3 года назад

No need for a CANBUS or decoder just plug and play. I can verify it for the fog lights. I am assuming it's the same for the headlights as well. I tried upgrading the headlight bulbs to LED on 2017-2018 Elantra no problem. This being the older model, it's very likely you shouldn't have issues for it.

@migo9410 Год назад

i have a 2015 elentra base model and in jan 2020 i had the passenger side flasher just cleaned and re installed and then in feb 2020 i had to have the driver side same thing but now my driver side flasher is not working again and so i wanna try it myself to remove headlight from driver side since it seems driver side we have no choice to remove it and i will see if it needs to be cleaned or replaced my flasher biu like you menetioned the bulbs are enclosed water tight so why am i still apparently having moisture issues only 6 months after a garage cleaned the flasher ?? Lisa thank you and awesome detailed video escpecially putting it back on

@VirarAutomotive 4 года назад

Glad you found the video useful. Moisture issues could be a number of things, most likely being that there is a rubber seal sealing off the headlamp unit, that rubber seal may have cracked/and that could be letting moisture buildup inside the headlight. Sorry, but I can't be more specific without having actually looked at your headlight.

@pjmclenon 4 года назад

hello sir thank you for the reply; i will look for any cracks in the seals when i remove the headlight plex unit; my issue is with the front flashers; the garage cleaned the passenger side front in jan 2020 and so far its ok; the garage cleaned the driver front side in Feb 2020 and now since 1 week ago its not working again; and so i wiil try to remove it myself soon and see; Lisa

@pjmclenon 4 года назад

maybe they didnt reinstall the headlight unit really tight and properly? but i would see it im sure if it wasnt seated properly ...? it looks installed fine to me.... i will check Lisa

@VirarAutomotive 4 года назад

Sounds good Lisa. Good luck! Hopefully you are able to figure it out. I don't see a reason as to why they had to clean it in the first place. Those bulb housings are supposed to sealed and the only time you do have to open them is when you have to replace a bulb. I have never had to just clean the headlight from inside as part of routine maintenance. I hope they didn't charge you much for this

@pjmclenon 4 года назад

hello thanxz for the comment; at the dealer was 11$ and at the local garage (driver side) $20; but thats the thing why is this happneing in the 1st place if all is sealed and contained as you describe; its a 2015 elentra; i dont know why this started happening in Jan 2020; its a manufacture defect??; i never had any accidents or anything and i have low KM 60k; anyway i have to see whats going on cuz the driver flasher in front is not working again after not working in Feb 2020 and they just cleaned it of rust and dirt and moisture; same thing for the other side; never changed the flasher bulbs either side just cleaned; Lisa thxz for any comments i appreciate it and when i do try to remove it i will update here

@@VirarAutomotive In hindsight I ended up having to remove the two add’l bolts up the fender because I realized that none of the videos are actually for a 2014 Elantra. We ended up scratching the plastic and bending the pointy part getting it out. I took the two bolts out (drivers side) to get it back in and it went right back in.

I have 2014 Elantra and I want to upgrade headlamp bulbs to the 5K bright white ones. Not projector type. I have low beam bulbs. I have found high beam bulbs. But what about DRL bulbs? Are the same as the high beams? *thank you

@VirarAutomotive 4 года назад

I know in 2014 they made slight changes to the headlight. It was part of their mid-cycle refresh. The vehicle I used in the video was a 2013 model year. And the main change they made to the 2014-2016 was the DRL. I don't remember but I think the DRL for your car is the LED strip. If that is the case then I am not sure how you can replace it.

@rssell 4 года назад

@@VirarAutomotive Hmm. Thank you. Google only says DRL bulb size = LED bulb! I will check it out tomorrow and reply with finding. Headlamps on this car are beautiful - but complicated! There may be 5 bulbs.

@VirarAutomotive 3 года назад

@rssell 3 года назад

@@VirarAutomotive No sorry. I was wiggling it out and then chickened out. Paid dealer $40. Funny story - I told the guy at the counter that they had to remove the entire headlamp to change the bulb and he was like "Um. No that doesn't sound right. But we'll check it out." Great video either way. Thank you.

@VirarAutomotive 3 года назад

Aah glad to hear that you figured it out. As far taking the headlight out, I couldn't think of any other way to easily replace the bulbs without having to take the bulbs out.Plus taking the headlight out wasn't that difficult to begin with. But I gotta give you Kudos for trying. Maybe next time it's something small I hope you will watch one of my videos and give it a try. I started just that way. It's always a little scary the first time around, and that is where I hope my videos help you. Don't give up, try again next time with soemthing else and I hope you will feel confident in owning your car 🚗😀😁
