Thank you awesome detailed video! I've been trying forever to find a video that explains every step.
You are very welcome
Wow, thank you so much for each detailed step. I never would have figured out a couple of those steps on my own.
Glad it was helpful!
I had a friend ask me how to change the bulbs in his 2017 Elantra. I wasn't sure for the new cars (retired as a mechanic in 1985 with a back problem) so I used my UA-camFu to find you. As we talked, I found your vid online and sent it to him. He'll try it himself instead of letting a mechanic charge him a lot for it. // On my 2007 Tundra, I had to move the battery 2" backward for the driver side high beam. and move the washer tank to get the passenger side done. Only took half an hour, but a PITA.
Glad to hear that you found this video helpful enough to share with your friend. It really isn't that hard to change the headlight bulbs on this Elantra. But I know what you mean, some of the cars serviceability who practically ignored of when they designed them. 😊
Thank you for the way to follow video. This is my first Hyundai with separate high and low beam bulbs and it helps to get a quick walkthrough before changing one of them for the first time.
Great to hear!
Your the best video I have seen! Please do as many different parts for this car as possible
Thank you very much for your kind words. Do check out and bookmark my playlist that has all the videos I made just for the 2017-2018 Hyundai Elantra : Hyundai Elantra (2017-2018): ua-cam.com/play/PLFtKj3oFrQPPPbwWkvuxXsqWDD4WYxfXx.html
Exactly what I needed, thank you very much for this. Did it in 20 minutes (cap was reallllllyyyyy tight on mine)!
So glad to hear that you found the video helpful!
mine is super tight what should i do?
Twist it left and right. Use a towel to do it so it doesn't hurt your palms.
Really appreciate YOU! Thanks a bunch for easy instructions!! Goin to change my bulb now!
Thank you for your kind words! Glad you found the video helpful!
Awesome! I was trying to figure this out myself but felt I might be about to break something. I'm going to go try again now. Thank u!!
I am glad you found it useful! Let me know how it goes! Good luck!
Really great video, well filmed and explained. Thanks.
Glad you found it useful Sir. 😁
This literally looks so easy thank you so much
You are very welcome! Glad you found it useful.
Excellent tutorial, thank you!
If you are doing the driver side low beam that is the hardest one because of the box directly behind the headlamp. If you have small hands it might be easier but I have big hands and it was not easy!
Yes you are correct. I was able to do it since I have smaller hands and I was only able to get my hand in there, it wasn't possible to get the camera in there and my hand in there at the same time.
My experience too. I'm glad I bought two bulbs since I broke one trying to work in that tight space.
@@thomases1609 yikes!
@@davebuskirk1758 the plastic notches on the cap broke trying to turn mine. Thats how tight it is.
I've been trying to get my driver side low beam bulb changed for several days and no one has been able to do it. I'm really dreading taking it to the dealer. They take all day even if you have an appointment. I'm going to get my husband to watch this, he's already tried it once.
Best mechanic video i have watched ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks
Thank you for your kind words

Good video. It took less than 5 minutes to make the change. I did use a flathead screwdriver to help pop the cover off instead of a key.
Glad to hear that!

Thank you man! That helped!
Glad it helped!

Awesome! Good luck!
Whoa, I'm in shock-I actually pulled off changing a headlight solo for the first time ever! Your guidance was so crystal clear that even a total rookie like me could handle it. Thanks for temporarily upgrading me to mechanic status, even if it's just for today! You're a lifesaver! 🪛
🚗 🔦😅
Glad to hear that you found the video helpful! Thank you for sharing! More power to you!
Hello Dear : Many thanks for your explanation, kindly could you help to let me know which type of holder adapter should i use in Elantra 2017 to replace the halogen bulb by h7 led bulb for low beam.
Hello. I am not sure what type of adapter would work for it. However if you are trying to upgrade your headlight bulbs to LED bulbs. Try out these ones. I had installed them and they installed perfectly, direct replacement for the factory halogen bulbs. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G9WTHTN/
Thanks for the great video.
Thank you for your kind words.
Good stuff!!👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
good explanation. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Very easy and helped a lot thank you!!
Glad it helped!
I added silicone grease to those cap gaskets, protects that rubber O"ring and eases removing that cap. If you don't, that 65 watt bulb will bake on that cap and you will never get it off.
You need a good seal, bulb heats the the air inside the assembly and if any leaks our, creates a vacuum that sucks in moisture when it cool down. A wet inside housing sure blocks the light output. Sylvania XtraVision's cost a few cents more and are 30% more brighter and also last a long time, I average about 8-9 years and do a lot of night driving. Carry spare bulbs in the trunk and a flash light just in case.
Also carry spares for all running lights such as parking, directional, and license plate. Need a 10 mm nutdriver for the rear tail lamps. That can also use silicone on that front rubber seal to make it easier to pull out.
If you replace your lamps with other than what your owners manual calls for, you are accepting the liability and may not even be covered by that other guys insurance company that hit you. Crooks will do anything to avoid a claim.
Comment Pinned. Excellent tips. You sure have done your fair share of driving and being in tricky situations. Those bulbs somehow tend to fail at the worse possible moments. Will use the tip to apply silicone grease on my future videos. Thanks.
Lol. It ain't that bad. worst case you won't be able to get that dust cover off. Plenty of people have watched this video and replaced their bulbs successfully. Give it a try!
I use SuperLube Synthetic Grease with PTFE. It's a bit less nasty than silicone but provides the same long-lasting slickness you need for apps like this.
Hello, I’m trying to see how aftermarket RGB high beam would work I tried to fit the H7 kit in but the housing just slide . Any idea?
Sorry no idea about the aftermarket RGB kit. Haven't tried that out.
Thank you!! Great Video!!
Glad you found it useful!
this was great, thank you!!!
Thank you so much! Glad to hear that you found the video helpful!
Thank you so much for your video. It showed me how to do it on my own and save $150 from a mobile mechanic coming. You have a new subscriber :-)
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for your kind words!
Tip for taking off the covers on each light: use a flat head screwdriver and a small hammer to twist off/on the caps.
I was trying to remove them with just my bare hands for like 20 minutes. Even tried using a crescent wrench. Ended up damaging one of the fins and both my thumbs.
Then I switched to a flat head and hammer, it was off in like three seconds 😑
I was noticing the headlamp assembly too: it might be possible to remove it all by unscrewing three fasteners at the top of the assembly? Anyone try this yet?
Glad you found it useful!
I don’t think I have to worry about the bulb being hot cause I’ll only change it when it’s not working 🤓 great video btw easy to understand and short
Thank you!
great video !
Thanks!
Yeah, you make it look so easy but how to do the low beam if the cap is STUCK?
Just wiggle the cap a few times (left-right-left-right), may take a minute or two but eventually it will come loose. To make it easier on your hands use a towel to do so.
I used pliers it was stuck hard ngl
Pry it loose with a flathead. No prob.
Thank you my low beam thing is stuck like a mofo 2 tech at auto zone had no luck so here I am trying

THANK YOU !!!
You are very welcome.
Any tips on unscrewing the low beam cover? The cover on my driver side is so so tight.
The only real tip is to use a rag or towel to grip the cover and undo it. I remember when I did the first time, I thought I was going to break something, because it just wouldn't come off and it was hard on my palm. I then grabbed a towel and used that to twist it and eventually it came off. It's not the most accessible place and the moisture that's there doesn't make it easy either.
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain step by step Virar. Virar, what kind of bulbs should I get for the low beam headlight specifically?

Thanks! ☺️
You are welcome. Glad you found the video helpful! :)
This video is super helpful for my high beam replacement but my low beams are the D5S HID bulbs. Do you have a video or explanation on how to remove these bulbs?
Thank you for the detailed instructions, I just changed both low beam bulbs!!! To hopefully help clarify, when twisting the cover off the low beam, turn it to driver side or away from passenger side. turning "left" made me wonder if I was suppose to face the car because cover won't budge for a few minutes.
Thank you for sharing. When I make my other videos I will try to keep that in mind when mentioning directions.
When I have to do it myself instead of waiting on my man to do it. Thanks for sharing this video
So glad to hear that! You Go Girl! :)
Your videos have helped me a lot with my hyundai 2017 elentra. I would like to request you to please add a video about how to clean the engine area safety. Thank you
Thank you for your kind words David. I would actually suggest you watch this video. It does a great job at explaining the process. ua-cam.com/video/PRSoRkM8GcM/v-deo.html
Very good thank you so much
You are most welcome
Братан, спасибо! Все доходчиво и понятно! Респект!
Пожалуйста, Брат! Ваше здоровье!

Glad I could help!
Hello sir, thank you for your video! Do you have a video or know if its possiblr to replace de DLR led strip?
Hello. It is possible to replace the entire DRL Led strip. Unfortunately I don't have a video for that with me and I don't have this car anymore to be able to make a video on how to do it.
@@VirarAutomotive I see, thanks for your reply!
low beam also h7 as well ? i am looking for a led so any suggestion
Low beam is 9005 Bulb. Check out this link for LED light bulbs. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G9WTHTN
Thanks. Can’t believe your still looking at comments
I try my best to respond as quickly as I can. Glad you found the video helpful
Any suggestions if your cap is literally so stuck and will not twist?
Apply alternating force, left --> right --> left ---> right, and keep at it for a few minutes, it should come off eventually. I know it sounds like a hassle but unfortunately sometimes it just gets stuck.
Nice video, very well explained, im having trouble trying to remove driver side cap since it is really tight. ( I could remove the passenger side, I was able to use 2 hands) is there any tools or something I can use to remove the cap of driver side? Thanks
Unfortunately I don't know of any specific tools you could use for this job. Putting a towel on the cap and forcing the cap, left, right, left, right for a few minutes should make it easier to come off and be easier on your hands as well.
I used a small flat head screwdriver and small hammer. With some light taps, it was off in less than five seconds
Omg thank you for leaving this comment
How can u replace that halogen high beam light into led ones pls suggest me
Just swap the bulb's with LED bulbs. Check the link in description to buy Auxito LED Bulbs
Thank you
You're welcome!
The first step in my manual says to disconnect the negative connection on the battery. Was that done?
Disconnecting the negative connection on the battery when doing any electrical work is always a good idea. Also that black clip at the base of the bulb you mentioned is an adapter. It is very likely removable.
Awesome man saved me like $50 lol
Glad you found it useful!
My g, u came through!
How to check DRL lights that are not turning on please. Thank you
Thanks on your videos please tell me how change small lamp
Can i know how do i replace the Pole light (T10) beside the highbeam light?
Maybe this video should help: ua-cam.com/video/VHEbOvRpWHA/v-deo.html
Can i replace the halogen with 9005 HB3 LED Headlight. Will it fit in to it..
Ofcourse you can replace the low beam lights 9005 Halogens with 9005 LED. If you want to replace the high beams as well please ensure it's the right size as mentioned in the video description as the low beam and high beam lights are different.
Also check the description for the link to buy the bulbs and for the discount code..
@@VirarAutomotive Thanks for the prompt response.
Very helpful video. What is the bulb type for lowbeam? . As h7 is the bulb type for high beam. Thanks
Low Beam Bulb: 9005.
