    Hi I’m a DIY guy as well but my 2006 Nissan Altima bulb/headlight assembly I was dreading to work on. But your video was one of the most simple, clear and straight forward I’ve seen for this job.
    Great job and thanks

    Wow those headlights make it looks so refreshed. Thinking about getting mine replaced because I absolutely cannot stand how aged it looks with the fogging.

    I'm trying to get the small side window behind the rear driver side window replaced. Thanks for the headlight tutorial. I need to do those as well.

    Thanks for the tutorial bro. I'm gonna be doing the headlights on my 2005 Altima soon, def helps prepare for the project coming soon! These damn headlight oxidize so much...I buffed mine clean and they work pretty good but still not nearly as good as new. DEPO makes some with main bulbs as projectors so I'm gonna get a set of those and LED or HID bulbs for it. Hopefully it will be like having lights on a new car lol! Thanks again for the tutorial it was well done!

    Thank you for taking the time to post this Sir. It has been a while since I last replaced the headlamps in my 2005 Nissan Altima and I wasn't sure if the front grille had to come of or not. Apparently it does. Oh well, I'm heading outside to have at it now. Thank you again.

    Looks very easy compared to changing the rear plugs and coils in a 3.5 L.

    Perfectly explained with great visuals to help find the screw locations!
    Do you know if it would be exactly the same for a 2006 Altima?

      Thanks! I am not sure if the Altima is the same as I haven't dived into one of those yet.

    Awesome video do you think that plastic shroud underneath between the bumper and rad is important?

    • @diydozier3205

      It’s to direct airflow to the radiator. Yes

    My headlights are oxidized like these were and vision is lousy at night. How much difference in vision will I get by fitting new ones?

    How do you adjust / aim head light? My light is shining up in the sky ,right side.

    • @diydozier3205
      @diydozier3205  2 роки тому

      I dont recall. This was a customers car. So I can't walk out and look at it. Usually an adjustment screw on the housing.

    The goddamn headlight cable won't come off!! You know, the one with the fucking tab you press down on. There's one on the ac compressor and it's ALSO not coming off.
