    Good video.
    That fender access panel is good if you have small girl hands.
    If you have man hands like most people this video is very helpful.
    I was dreading changing this side as the passenger side gave me fits, too.
    For passenger side unclip the cpu and you can get at the headlight housing. Those fender panels didn't work on that side either.

    I just changed the low beam headlight bulb via the fender well access panel and it was much easier than this.

      That will only work with older once 2011-2012 but on 2015 there is a bracket in the way and you can’t fit your hand.

      I got me HD blue lights and only had to change the passenger side. I get barely any light out of it. Anyone knows if lights are some how connected and if I put both the same will light up better? At this point the blue light is barely visible even if you look straight in to it from outside.

    Good video, but, my 2015 Overland has HID’s , not LED’s. However, I went in the same way he did in this video. The HID’s are SO much harder to remove than LED’s.

      Other side you remove two 10 mm bolts holding coolant reservoir tank, move tank to the side, push plastic clip holding engine control module to unlock and slide module up. Now you should have enough space to access the bulb.
