This is a simple video showing you how to replace the low beam bulbs with simple tools for both sides of the Altima.(2002-2006) No need to take the fender liner out for this.
I have a 2005 Altima that needed the driver's side low beam bulb replaced. I watched this video and did it myself, which saved me outrageous labor cost to pay a shop to do it. Thank you very much for posting this video!!
BZ! Well done, my new best friend. Made this look super easy and no doubt saved me several hateful words that I would ultimately regret. Two Thumbs Way Up!
@@MultiDwan i watched this video and you show how that spring clips works and how to remove the best... i put in a new bulb today ...to night i will see if its better...then i will replace other side... thanks
Thanks for making the video man. I wanted to ask you about the longevity of the bulbs you put in? I was thinking of buying the same. The last ones I put in lasted maybe like a year only (used the remove bumper method but then ended up polishing the headlamp assemblies while I was at it), whereas the OEM halogens lasted like 10 years! Let me know your thoughts since I'm looking at buying the exact same bulbs. Thanks!
Glad the video helped you out! I'm still using the the exact bulbs from the video and they seem to be a good quality bulb. And yes OEM is usually a better quality product but in our area OEM is often way more money.
Thanks! I was wondering about the passenger side. All the other vids I came across showed driver side only. What's strange, my 03 altima has a black wire, orange wire and a yellow wire. All the other vids I see are just red and black. wire. *EDIT* Turns out some 03 3.5L SE had a sports package and it came with stock HID lights. I just needed the bulbs.
@@MultiDwan What's strange, my 03 altima has a black wire, orange wire and a yellow wire. All the other vids I see are just red and black. My ballat went out and I can't find one for a car this old. Do you know if the orange is negative, what is the yellow? Black I'm Guessing is ground.
Can anyone help me out here, I have the same car, 2005 Nissan Altima V6 3.5 Liters. When I look for the gray box that has the bulb it’s different. Idk why. I have this huge box instead of a cap and I can’t get enough space for my hand to fix my headlight. it’s impossible to remove
@@andrewyco4507 Me too I have the same car V6 3.5 SE Its crazy my driver side is a H1 and my passenger side is dif. it is a D2R but to get to the bulb its a job you have to get to them from the wheel you have to loosen the plastic inner linen plus you have to take part of the bumper off there is a video from A1-auto on you tube that walks you thru its not hard but it is timely as for the bulb google D2R head lights 2-for 39.99 or go to Rock auto great prices you have to look at rock auto I think it's like $15 or $17 for 1 bulb
RIGHT! ESPECIALLY when it goes out at night in the middle of a long trip home!!! This is CRAZINESS!!! I'm a woman who can change a tire and fix many things... but this is just NOT one of those "side of the road" fixes!! Unsafe and inconvenient at the very least!! Ugghh
thank you so much. you are literally the only person to do both bulbs. I will never remove my bumper again!!
I'm glad it worked for you! I'm always looking for shortcuts when repairing vehicles.

@@JesseH76 Not sure about that. Are you lights HID's?
Dont follow remove bumper method UNLESS replacing the whole headlight cover

Then it may different.
I can’t find the right bulb online. I went to Autozone and they said it was 100 bucks and I don’t have that kind of money
@@andrewyco4507 Have you checked on Amazon? I saw some low beam bulbs (2) for $22.95 US. Part # GR-D2S-6K.

Jeez, so much for a quick fix, makes no sense you have to do all that just to replace headlights 👎🏽
