How-To: Replace Headlights On 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix Base/GT/GXP

How to remove the 2004-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix headlight assembly for access to the bulbs. The same process is used for installing or converting to HIDs, however you'll also need to mount the ballast and igniter to the vehicle.
Tools Needed:
10mm wrench or ratchet
9006/HB4 bulb for the low beam
9005/HB3 bulb for the high beam

[@Ditch1221]

Thank you kindly. I went to change the low beam and looked down and thought how the hell do you get to that. Your video saved me a bunch of frustrating and cuss words.

“Ah yea don’t touch the bulb it could explode”
WHAT 🤠😂 I had to double check with my car buddy that blew me away. I’ve never worked on a car before but this looks far easier than anything else I’ve seen.

[@alexyoungberg5232]

😂😂 *JR i watch everyone of your uploads and then i search for a video of how to change my headlights (to ZXEs because im a gearhead you know) and its one of your videos from long ago. You the man JR! Cant wait til you hit 1M subs* 👍💪

[@wecantbefriends1660]

Didn't know you couldn't touch the bulb. Thanks.

[@WatchJRGo]

Of course! If you do accidentally touch the bulb, you can fix it by wiping it off with alcohol.

[@tycospartan117]

[@karlwilliams8397]

Thanks for the video, I just changed mine.

[@C5MFEAC]

For the GTP follow these instructions:
Step 1: Lift the vehicle's hood.
Step 2: Lift and release the white tab on the back of the headlight assembly.
Step 3: You can now pull the headlight from the vehicle.
Step 4: Disconnect the wiring harness attached to the back of the headlight.

[@WatchJRGo]

Good call!

[@robertbaldwin1386]

Thank you... This is the same for 2004 GTs...

[@riahjaklich5691]

Thank you! Saved me a lot of trouble

[@ericanightshade]

The one part you don't show is the one part I am having trouble with. I am trying not to slice my fingers apart here.

[@Sho81]

well I see how to pop the headlight out now. Was just involved in a hit and run that broke the mounting bracket on the way to buy a replacement power cable for my dash cam since it has an apparent defect of falling apart in under a years time. I say defect because the guy on the customer service line told me a lot of complaints of similar problems happened with others.

[@susansheets6]

[@WatchJRGo]

Haha, thanks!

[@hinosukii9479]

When you say don’t touch the bulb, what does that mean. I’m sorry, I’m new to this/

[@Valentoria]

How do you adjust and aim these?

[@Sidehustlekevinfresh]

What bout a 2009

[@jacklegler2161]

Does the head light also control the turn signal ? My turn signal is out in the front and I’m not sure if I should replace just the whole thing

[@yamahawolverine466]

On my 2004 the turn signal is part of the fog light, not the headlight.
