    Just wanted to say thank you for making this video. It has really helped me out...

    The owner's manual for my 2006 9-3 gives directions for changing bulbs on page 234 & 235. The driver's side was a little tricky, and took about 5 minutes - and I'm a girl! You do have to pull out the washer fluid fill pipe and air pipe - I wondered - but it worked and went back together easily.

    We'll keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future.

    We do show you at the very begining of the video how to reach in and change the bulb without taking the headlight out. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

    You can try to reach behind the main beam and see if you can access the bulbs.

    While removing the entire bumper cover certainly gets the job done, you can leave it on. Just remove the top and wheel well fasteners then pull the sides of the bumper cover out and tuck them just low enough to get to the headlight bolts on the side. Then change the headlight housing as shown. Good Vid. Thanks.

    Thank You! Even though my 93 is a 2001, this helped me get it done (the owners manual doesn’t give enough details.

    No need to remove bumper cover. The washer fluid neck is designed to be removed to accommodate bulb replacement.

    I have a 2004 aero convertible and the HID lamp assemblies were broken before I got the car, the tabs were cracked from a fender-bender. I'd like to replace them but they are like 1000 bucks a piece. My question is can I replace the whole headlight with halogen type headlights which I can get much cheaper or is is the voltage and harness completely different?

    My geuss would be that this PROFESSIONAL did not read the owners manual!
    Good job chief! This why people do not trust use professionals! Do your study on things you do not know!!!

    I'll probably just drill a hole to get a socket on extension through. Then put a rubber plug in it.

    My drivers side light burned out. After I viewed your video I thought I was going to have to dismantle the front of my car. Luckily I saw another which demonstrated how to replace the bulb in about 2 minutes, without the front of the car being torn apart.

  • @abbyk5159
    @abbyk5159 10 років тому

    Am I correct in understanding that I can replace either the bulb or the entire headlight, which has the bright, regular headlight & turn signal bulb?

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  10 років тому

      Yes, this video will show you how to fix both the headlight and also the bulb.

  • @elwynjones7372
    @elwynjones7372 7 років тому +3

    thought you just removed the fuze box to get at the back of the headlight that's what I do on my 2010 aero

    • @claymanbob1
      @claymanbob1 5 років тому

      This is for replacing the entire headlight assembly, not just the bulbs.

  • @trencher7

    I need to replace my ballast on the other side. I assume its the same process and I need to remove the headlight to access right?

    • @1AAuto

      +trencher7 That is correct!

    Why do you have to take off the front bumper to change the headlight bulb?

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  9 років тому

      The bolts that attach the headlight to the header panel are covered by the bumper cover. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com

      On the passenger side you don't. You can just reach in and take the rubber hood off. On the driver side I think you may.

      +Isabella Grimes You should be able to perform this repair in your driveway without a lift. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com

      Did this today in driveway. Car on the ground.

      @iscmiscm 3 роки тому

      The lift is just to make it easier, but the job can be done without.
      I wondered if just a partial removal of the front bumper would work, as the bumper is quite flexible.

  • @seltzinator
    @seltzinator 7 років тому +3

    Are you serious? Why are you disconnecting the fluid hoses in the bumper? Just let it hang dude. I wonder if you even have to remove the whole thing. Seems like you made a small job into a big job.

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  7 років тому +4

      +Dunparrow Removing the whole bumper cover and disconnecting the hoses just takes stress off of the parts that would otherwise stay connected. You do need to remove the bumper cover to gain access to the lower bolts holding the headlight assembly in, but you're right that if you really needed to save a few seconds you could leave the hose attached. We took it off so as to not stress the rubber, and suggest our viewers do the same. Thanks for watching!
