  • Replacing the headlights and fog lights were a nice upgrade for our 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
    In this video, I show how to
    1. Remove Grill
    2. Remove Bumper
    3. Remove Headlight Assembly
    4. Remove Fog Lights
    5. Put it all back together

    These instructions should be pretty much the same for all the Jeep WK models from 2005 - 2010.
