In this DIYNate video, DIYNate replaces a Chevy Suburban 2013 (1500 series) passenger side low beam headlight by removing two bolts on the front side from under the hood to loosen the headlight and give enough play to access the low beam bulb. Bulbs purchased were basic H11 headlight bulbs from Sylvania (lots of options to purchase online). DIYNate did not have to access the bulb through the wheel well; however, if the two bolts removed don’t free up the headlight enough, you may have to go through the wheel well to release another bolt. Fairly simple project to do yourself and the replacement part was roughly $17-18.

@Robert Sears awesome - thanks for letting me know and great to hear it helped! Thanks for watching and the comment as well!
Great - that is fantastic to hear - virtual high five! That was my thinking too - really didn’t want to have to get any deeper into taking things apart than I had to.
Thanks for the video. Whatever idiot designed this should be publicly flogged.
I miss the days when you could keep a truck running with a pair of screwdrivers and a good crescent wrench.
@@DIYNate I'm guessing this would work on a 2010?
Very delayed response but I am always a fan of a public flogging! Thanks for the comment and making me laugh!

I stumbled on this method by accident, but then googled to see if I was missing some way to get more space behind the headlight. Your video shows exactly what I experienced on the driver's side, remove two bolts and wiggle the headlight forward enough to get your hand back there. No idea why Chevy makes it so hard to change a headlight the correct way, but this method works well enough on my 2013 Suburban.
Glad you were able to get it figured out as well - no way I was going to go from the underside to get in there - haha!
- DIYNate
Thank you for posting; 2013 Suburban owner and driver’s side low beam went out. I had to pull back the splash guard but didn’t have to pull-out bumper or completely pull-out headlight assembly. Took me 20 minutes.
Guy at parts store said given 8 years old, should do passenger side to and I was able to do passenger side in 3 minutes. Only had to remove two top bolts and wiggled out headlight enough to reach back.
Again, thank you! Saved me at least $120 labor at shop.
Great to hear the video helped, George, and love hearing the labor savings! Thanks for the comment!

🎉🎉🎉 so proud of myself for changing both bulbs out by myself while it was drizzling out lmao 🤣 😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉 Grateful for this video!!
Great job getting the headlights changed out @babydeebo13! Appreciate your comment and thanks for letting me know the video was helpful!

Thank you so much for showing how easy it is to replace a lightbulb.. I thought I had to take the whole front apart and the tire well cover to get this done. I chose to watch another video before proceeding.. thank god I watched you. ✨
That is great to hear and glad I could save some effort and frustration! Thanks for letting me know!
- DIYNate
Same here. I was deflated after watching the first video. This Really Helps! Thank You
Thanks for the video, I'm planning to put some leds hopefully your technique works for me. 👍
Sounds like a good plan! Hope it works well for you and thanks for your comment!
- DIYNate
Thank you for the video. I was able to change out my blown low beam myself and saved myself money by doing so.
Excellent Jenessa - glad to hear the video helped and you got it done! Love helping people save a couple bucks!
- DIYNate
Previously I've had to go through the wheel wells to replace these bulbs. This time I removed the two screws as shown, then gave a good tug on the top back of the light assembly and it created a gap big enough to get my hand down there. Quickest install of these bulbs I've ever done. I did wear vinyl gloves when I took the new bulbs out of the package and installed them. Thanks for posting the video. ;-)
You got it - glad to help and awesome to hear this was a fast change for you! Thanks for the comment!
- DIYNate
I've done it the other way. Had to change one in the cold tonight and tried this way. It worked great just had to trade a little blood off my thumb getting my hand in there but still worth the time savings 👍
Thanks for letting me know it worked for you and definitely can be a tight squeeze getting your hand in there! Glad to hear the time savings was worth it and thanks for your comment!
- DIYNate
Nice thanks bro.. I was nervous when you said a lot of complications to change it in beginning.. glad I watched ur video first
Very happy to help - glad it worked for you and thanks for letting me know!
- DIYNate
This worked on my 2014 suburban today. Definitely was easy and not a big deal with the assurances from this video. Thank you!
Thanks for your comment Kristin - glad it helped and great job on knocking it out! I am a big fan of watching a video to give me confidence to take on a project (or to realize it is more complex than I want to get into). Really appreciate you letting me know it was helpful!
- DIYNate
Hey if you unscrew the two bolts that are connected to the headlight you can pull the whole headlight enclosure enough to change out the low beams on both sides and connect new bulbs and just snap it back in and screw the bolts back in. Took me 20 minutes total from start to finish.
Thanks, easy peezy
Nice - glad it worked for you, Elliott! Appreciate the comment!
- DIYNate
You my friend are an earth angel 👼!!! These other videos you have to disassemble half the car to get to the stupid bulb! They probably designed it that way, that way you have to take it to the dealer and pay 700 bucks to get your $17 bulb installed 🙄, thank you sir you are a genius.
Haha - this may be my favorite comment ever, Jake! Glad it helped and to save all of us a few hours of headaches and keep us from the dealer trap! Thanks for making me smile, sir!
- DIYNate
Thanks the video was straight to the point.
Very welcome and happy to help!
- DIYNate
worked great for me - fast and easy on a 2012. thanks!
Awesome - love hearing that it was an easy fix and worked for you. Thanks for letting me know!
- DIYNate
Great changed my bulb no problem, thanks.
Very welcome, Tony - great job on getting it done! Appreciate the comment!
- DIYNate
I changed mine under 3 mins, all I did was loosen the clamp that connects to the air box and unplugged the mass air flow sensor and then pulled up on the air box and I had full access to the bulb. Swapped out and put everything thing back and I was done.
Thanks for confirming that there’s not an easy way to pull the whole assembly out
You are welcome - thanks for watching and commenting!
- DIYNate
Thank you for your help! This video was perfect
Awesome, Joseph - it is great to knows these videos helped someone out! I know I also enjoy a bunch of other people’s videos in similar manner, so I feel like it is my way of paying it forward - haha! Appreciate the comment!
Thank you for saving me time,,bulb replacement should be simple,, not complicated by removing the front grille, and getting in the wheel well
Happy to help and glad to save you some time and energy with going in through the top / front vs. the wheel well. Thanks for letting me know - appreciate your comment!
- DIYNate
Thank you! The only thing I'd add (and maybe I just missed the cue) is be sure to turn the bulb 1/3 - 1/4 turn before trying to pull it out. At least that was the trick on my 2009. Much appreciated!
Glad the video helped! Yes - the turn helps disengage the bulb and then the same thing going the other way when putting it back in - good call! Appreciate the comment!
- DIYNate
Thank you for this comment. I couldn't get the bulb out and turning it did the trick!
Thank you very much you make it easy
Excellent - great to hear! Thanks for checking out my video, Yoseph!
Very helpful
Happy to help - appreciate your comment!
- DIYNate
Same for 2012. Need to turn the bulb to get it out.
Thanks for the comment - appreciate it!
- DIYNate
Can you do this on driver side too?that would be awesome if so
I believe so - I don’t think there is a difference on the driver vs. passenger side as far as this solve goes. Hope it works for you!
- DIYNate
Yes, I've done drivers and passenger sides like this.
Kinda hard to tell which bolts were removed. Thanks for the video, though, good practical experience!
Sure thing - sorry I didn't give more up-closes on the bolts and stuff, but appreciate you watching and letting me know the feedback.
- DIYNate
That was my experience also. I was able to have enough space to swap the light bulb by just removing the 2 screws on top of the headlight housing
Way better than having to go up through the wheel well or pay a mechanic, right? Thanks for your comment and glad you were able to knock it out!
- DIYNate
Thanks!
Question, why does it seem when I go to replace light bulbs, if I take them out and then plug them back in they all of a sudden magically work? I've had this happen three times on house light bulbs recently and just had this happen using the method in the video to replace the bulb. I decided to try plugging the old one back in and it worked fine. Is there some kind of corrosion or connection issue happening between the connections? Thank you for the video by the way.
Hey there - great question and I certainly don’t have the technical knowledge to answer that question but I would bet either a combination of corrosion, or a loose connection or over time, the bulb not making as tight a connection anymore. With house light bulbs, I have seen that little copper piece in the socket getting pressed down and not making as strong a connection so when repositioning the bulb, it sometimes makes a difference or pulling that tab out a bit (carefully with the electricity off of course). I would imagine though that it is possible the bulb may be getting close to end of life as well but hopefully in your case just resetting the bulb is better than buying a new bulb. It likely is either a connection issue and no bulb issue or a bulb issue and no connection.
Great thought and thanks for your comment!
DIYNate
Removing the air box makes it super simple and quick.....unscrew one connection at the MAF Sensor and the air box pops right out.....
Good call - thanks for sharing and the comment!
- DIYNate
Got any tricks for the drivers side
Thanks!
Your welcome! Glad to hear the video helped!

*u not suppose to touch the bulb smh*
Hey Cody - I agree, definitely don’t want to touch the bulb during a replacement like this. My video makes it a little tough to tell, but I don’t touch the bulb while putting it in; it just kind of looks like it because I was filming with one hand and clipping the bulb in with the other (would have been a lot easier if I wasn’t making a video - haha!). Regardless, a good call out for everyone not to touch the bulbs and my video does kind of look like I am touching the bulb when putting it in. Thanks!
It doesn’t work guys
Hi Jaceand 1 - thanks for the comment. and sorry to hear it didn't work for you! Would you mind sharing where you ran into the issue in case other viewers have the same problem? I was able to get enough play by pulling out the front headlight to get just barely get my hand in there, but around the 4:30 mark in the video there is a screw/clip that I had to separate to pull the headlight out.
I wasn't sure if the issue you ran into was around the amount of play, or just too tough to get your hand in, or what? Also, mine was a 2013 Chevy Suburban - are you using similar vehicle?
Thanks! For other viewers, would love to hear if it worked well for you or if you weren't able to make the change from the front and had to go the hard way through the wheel well.
@@DIYNate sorry I don’t mind sharing
Its too complicated for him to explain
you the best man. save me money
Love, love, love hearing I helped save someone money - thanks for letting me know!
