How to replace the drivers' side headlight or headlamp in a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This was the Overland Summit model but should apply to year models 2011-2015. - Авто та транспорт
Every other video on this skipped the LOCKING tab... I was fighting this damn thing for WAY longer than needed... got to 4:40 on this video, ran out to the truck and voila... DONE! You rock!
The devil is in the details and I'm glad I gave you the right details to do it yourself. Thanks for the comment, like and subscribe.
Thanks for this video. I changed my bulb in about 15 minutes thanks to your tips. I didn't know about the black ring that locks the bulb in place and last time I just forced it out. This replacement was much easier after taking out the air filter housing. Really appreciate it.
Watched at least 10 videos on this subject. This one is by far and away the absolute Best on releasing the bulb. The rest don't show it. Thank YOU for taking the time to do it correctly. The price per bulb here from the dealer was $314. Plus $150 each for installation. Bought. 4 bulbs for $ 70 online. Saved $800+- by doing (attempting it) myself. Weak fingers and no knowledge about the black button has made this difficult. Arthritis ain't helping. But being retired means I've got the time to putter.
Finally a video that shows the replacement of the HID bulb and not the standard one. Saved me from breaking the light. Thanks for getting in there so we could see what was going on.
Glad it helped! Thanks for the like and subscribe.
Out of all the videos I've seen on how to actually get the bulb out, this one was the most helpful. I didn't want to spend money on labor if I could avoid it, so thank you!
Fantastic! That's what I love to hear. DIY and saved you some money. Thanks for the like and subscribe.
Thank you for recording this video. I followed your instructions today and I was able to replace my headlight bulb. You saved me $$$! I really do appreciate it.
I am so glad I found this video. Thanks for the tutorial. I followed your instructions and although the process was a pain in the neck, I was successful.
Thanks again, the bulb change took 25 minutes and saved me much $$$$ from the dealer quote!!!
Thanks for making this video I am going to attempt to change this bulb myself after watching.
The hemi is easy to do on both sides but, the pentastar is more difficult to get to on the passenger side HID.
Still finding this video useful today, thanks!
Great video. I tried to replace with Halogen lamp not realizing my car had HID. And had to yank out the bulb using all my might not knowing that there was the tab on the side to turn like you showed on your video. There was no way to directly see it and couldn't place the old bulb back in. After watching your video I turned the tab and was able to put it back in. My existing bulb has D3S model number so I ordered a pair of those on Amazon and will install when it arrives. Now I know how to take the bulb in and out of the socket it should be easier. Thanks for your video. Mine is on passenger side but your method of access seems much easier for drivers side than some other videos.
Thank you it took me 30 or 40 minutes to wach the video a couple of times, but I am a woman and I am doing it for the first time. But at the end thanks to this guy I save 80$ from taking it to firestone. I allred paid 100$ for the light from auto sone. Than you
Access the bulb from the wheels side is much easier that's why there is a hole in the cover between the engine and the wheel.
Awesome video - super helpful! Thank you!
Guys I received a quote from the dealership to replace 1 bulb for $485!!! Ridiculous!! So I watched this video and decided to do it myself. I bought the bulb on Amazon for $65. I read one of the comments and someone said you can access this through the wheel well. That is absolutely true. I did it through the wheel well and it’s much faster.
nice job, its really helpful.thx
Sheesh a whole year struggling with these Light bulbs because it kept falling off. I just couldn't figure out why it wasn't clamping down on the light until now. Thank you sir for that dumb little tab to I had to turn
Thanks for your help man.
great video..thank you!!
Great video, thank you.
Hi mate, thank you for your video. Do i need to disconnect the battery and do any operation to discharge the bulb? Is there any risk related to electrical current? Thank you!
How to the opposite HID. .
Help me plz. . .
How do I get that clip off?!
Thanks man good job
Excellent instruction, learned a ton and great job !! Going place my bulbs with 6000k bulbs on my wk2.
That way people coming towards you are blinded by blue light in a dark location. Excellent! Why share the road with all those conformants to yellow light.....
Thanks for the video
Thanks for the video, it was extremely helpful. The tags have not been mentioned in a lot of other 'how to'. One comment for those below saying there is easier access via the wheel well, how small are your hands? I am a tall person with large hands, I asked a smaller neighbour to try and he could just reach the lamp housing, but could not do anything due to the very limited room from this location.
wow thank you so much you really explained everything so well made it so easy 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏
Glad it worked for you. Thanks for the comment, like, and subscribe.
great video ty
Finally a good video!
Some say good others say terrible. Glad it worked for you. Thanks for the like and subscribe.
Nice video appreciated work. But there's an opening above the front driver's side tire under the finder made precisely for easier reach to the bulb.. why not go there instead 🤔
Is that the high and low beam
Exelente ilustración lastima ke no este en español.saludos desde veraguas panama
Thank you 🙏
I don't get it everyone one say's Remove the Bulb but ( 5:04 Detail of the Bulb) , don't show the detail of how to release the Bulb from the wire Connector. Don't you think that would be something to show. LOL ( 5:11) Remove the Clip just how is that done, would been a nice thing to show in the video.
You can access the bulb much quicker and easier than this guy. Turn your wheel hard to the right and you'll see a rubber sealed access panel. Just pull that out then reach your hand into the gaps till you've reached the bulb you needed the rotate to loosen replace bulb then reinsert and you're on your way

Your way is the only correct one to replace the bulb, it's there in user manual!!
Ali Amer yeah I don’t even know where my manual is but sometimes just stopping n using common sense and thinking...why would they do all this to change a bulb...there’s something your missing
Thank you...hey everyone ..there are a lot of good videos out there on this topic. However tailgatetalk has they key...and that is the two plastic wings (at 4:18) that if turned slightly conterclockwise bingo the bulb is released and pulls out. nobody explained it in these simple terms. Remember to lock back in. If following this video it should be a 30 minute job.
Thanks
Why can't you just go through the wheel well? There is an opening to access the lights from in there I've seen.
Because you cant see it well. Dahhh
This is a crazy late reply but the Overland edition 2011 WK2 is the first to introduce HIDs as nighttime lights, that being said, the base editions still used Halogen for night and they positioned the wheel well access point and size based off the base Laredo/ Limited Jeeps. It makes replacing the HID bulb really inconvenient.
access Panel in the inner wheel well so much easier to get to less than 5 minutes
Good tip. My arms must be too short, fat, or unable to contort enough to use the access panel. I posted this because it's easy to disassemble and go in topside for the same result. Thanks for watching and adding your knowledge.
the silver one is not for the DRL it is for the auto leveling thing. Be careful when spreading info.
Dany Halaby could you explain the difference
This is absolutely NOT the way to do this! Just go through the access panel in both wheel wells right in front of both tires. Thats what those round twist off panels are for, changing lights. Super easy guys don't waste your time this guy obviously never looked at the owners manual.
Maybe if someone has hands the size of an 8-year-old. Otherwise, that wheel well access hole is too small.
Who else watched this video after getting a ridiculous quote from a shop? I was just quoted $550.00 to replace both headlights. Not going to happen.
Just did mine today, thanks for the clear info.
Walmart says they'll change them $7.50 per bulb plus the parts
You’re leaving out the most important parts dude
What's that?
Thanks for the video! Very helpful!
