Good job. Just replaced mine today, and of course, the guy at Auto Zone sold me the wrong bulb. He sold me the high beam bulb, which was $18.99, but I showed him the HID bulb I needed, and of course it was $162. But the dealer wanted $315, so whatever. Needed to get this done.
Order the bulb off Amazon. Look up DS3 4300k which is stock bulb made by osram. Don’t pay over $60 for both bulbs combined. I just got 2 DS3 6000k HID bulbs for my scat off Amazon for $27 total.
Yea after changing parts out on my car and realizing how easy it is, I definitely see how the dealership is robbing ppl blind. Especially on brake pad replacements.
$120 a pair at Diode Dynamics. I ordered mine in the 6000k version and did them both. Yes they are a PITA to change but the fender well is the only option. I also have a 2014 Dodge Durango and they put access holes with removable covers in the fender wells. You would think they would do that across the board but hey... how else are the dealers going to make money?
i have the brighter ones in mine now my fuse is constantly melting and i have to cycle my lights off and on to get them back on they go out when they want to its annoying to keep cycling off and on but every time i change the fuse it does the same thing im wondering if i went back to the lower wattage ones will this stop
Probably gonna have to move airbox. Honestly it’s really easy to remove the full bumper. Look up a few videos. Removed the bumper on my 2018 scat to install the hellcat airbox and it’s not that hard at all.
At the point in video "blank thing" use a flat head screw driver on the right side of black flange (same for passenger and drivers side) and tap upward with hammer then twist off counter clockwise by hand. My take a couple tries but it will work.
you remember if your headlight started failing at 1st. like turning off and on even when driving? also the exact bulb that you used? i tried to get it from the box when You showed the bulb. thanks
That clip is a Bxx for me man did you like squeeze it and turn counter clockwise? Because I’ve been turning it counterclockwise but it’s resisting and I even blistered a finger in the process
Did the driver side without removing the wheel well cover about 2 months ago and just changed my passenger front using this method it was a bih to get out but just finished it and glad I Did it myself ...
I ordered my HID D3s 6000k from ebay and got 2 for $58 with expedited shipping. Optix was the company I used.. so much better than the dealer price! great video!
Jacob Lance Ware you have to twist REALLY HARD. It seems like they glued those clamps on there. But don't break it or you won't be able to hold your light in place when you go to put it back on.
Im a tech for Dodge dealership. Let me give you advice. #1-Never spend under $100 on HID. Do your research. If you want brighther than OEM. #2-Technically, removing the fascia makes the job easy. Even easy to remove that stubburn blk lock ring. Thats why stealership charge high.
Cool vid great work as well!! My shit is pulsing gid on low beam driver side soon as I turn light on it pulses nd then stay steady !! But this pulsing shit annoyed me!!! May b changing bulb or relay may clear that pulsing !!
Vid is perfect. How did you get the first plug undone?? I cannot seem to get the first plug of so then I can unscrew the bulb from the headlight. Is there a locking clip or something on the plug?
Dan Enger if you are referring to the silver plug that goes into the HID bulb, you can try using a flat head screwdriver to shimmy it off. Mine was kind of tight as well.
Ferny Ibarra these are HID lights so its not just a bulb, it has an entire plug and play box built on the light. If your car is not equipped with HID's already then no it won't fit because dodge decided to put regular yellow looking lights on some of the new chargers. I know many ppl hate that they did that. You would have to buy the entire HID kit and wire it in order to get HID lights on your vehicle. (if it is not already equipped with HID's)
I took mine in on a Saturday at 9am, the dealer closes at 12pm. They said because of the amount of time it takes to change the low beams, they didn't have time for it. This is just sad that you did it in 5 minutes, when they couldn't do it in 3 hours
Yea that’s true. But also you have to remember there are other cars they are working on as well. That’s why if I can fix something on my car myself, I do it. Cost less and I know I did the work right and on my own time.
Oscar Cortez I sold this car about 2 years ago. But no I never had that problem. Although when the bulb was nearing its life span it would go out then after a while it would come back on. Eventually it just completely went out and needed to be replaced.
I was able to replace the bulb in about 10 minutes thanks to your video. They actually have an opening so you can replace the bulb above the tire. It took so twisting and maneuvering but I have small hands. So again, thank you!!!
Thanks for the video CJ! I tried to go thru the front of the fenderwell like on the video but I'll be damned if I can get the SOB off! And I don't want to break it. Honest to God I was yanking int he thing so hard I thought for sure I was gonna break it! I looks like one could remove the ENTIRE inner thingy. Sure you'd have to remove the tire but that's easy (at least to me).
Thank.....YOU for the video.I refuse to go to the dealership for the sole purpose of the price and labor.I was going through the top and damn near removed the skin from my knuckles.Lol
I broke the locking ring trying to turn it to take the bulb off, went on youtube to see if theres a special way to remove it, apparently im not the only one thats broken it
preciate u bro making this video...I was wondering how the hell I could get to the bulbs..I'm definitely do the same u did going in from wheel well.....thx
I fucking broke the black piece I called dodge they have no idea what I’m talking about a local dealership by me any idea of a part number or link to get these
tim wells the clip sides off, you have to push up REALLY hard on the clip and it should pop off. But be careful because you could snap it in half then you won't be able to hold you bulb in place.

@@brolyassasin8354 you car has to have HID bulbs already installed. You can’t just do a HID bulb swap. There are additional components needed.

Didn't even think about going through the wheel well, need to do mine and was thinking dropping the bumper, thank you sir
Thanks for this, do you know the part number or where to replace the locking clip?
Saved me $300!! No one should have to pay that much to change a light bulb!! Works for the 2010 R/T too, with a little bit of finesse and flexibility.

My 2012 R/T light just went out this AM, so I will grab a pair and DIM. Thanks brah!
Even tho you broke it could you please tell me how did you even manage to twist the black part off. It's really making it hard to remove the old bulb
i used all the muscle in my arm and hand. turn it counter clockwise. that thing is fucking cemented on there it seems like.
On that driver side you can go through the tire way like you did or you can move the air box out the way

U can reach your fog lights doing the same thing?
I've always heard that you replace HIDs as a set if one fails. I have a set of 5k that I'm about to change out. Great tutorial.
Brewswillis yeah cause I just changed one and they don't match... it look blue... think it's a 8k
you remember if your headlight started failing at 1st. like turning off and on even when driving? also the exact bulb that you used? i tried to get it from the box when You showed the bulb. thanks
D3S, Osram brand.

The Goat I slightly broke mine 😂😂😂😂. They used the Thanos infinity gauntlet to install that clip bro.
Does this still work for 2007 Dodge Charger I have same prob seen my low beams wont come on idk if it’s this problem or not
Did the driver side without removing the wheel well cover about 2 months ago and just changed my passenger front using this method it was a bih to get out but just finished it and glad I Did it myself ...

Adrianne Hicks 2 for $58 that's amazing. Yea the dealership is going to charge you 5x for than that.
CJ Poosta yes, my husband is a mechanic so he had a discounted price still at $125 for one! I was like oh hell no!
I am at the point where I'm trying to twist the black thing and get the hid out but it will not come out..any suggestions?
Jacob Lance Ware you have to twist REALLY HARD. It seems like they glued those clamps on there. But don't break it or you won't be able to hold your light in place when you go to put it back on.
Jacob Lance Ware take a flat head screwdriver push up against the lower flange.. tap it lightly with a hammer .. mine popped right over
Dj Beatz I got it off. It was rough but I got it, I still have to change the other one out next week but this video helped me out alot.

Thanks, was just on that site, because the dealership tripping, I might go up to the 6000k and change both out.
Is that the D3S bulb?
Yes
Do You have a problwm where the bulb goes out when Driving. Mine does that :/

I did have one more question lol what website did you use
Maria Mejia-Delgado hidconcept.com
Great video did you order 4300k or 5000k?
You made it look way easy mines seems to be stuck wont come out
You my friend, are an amazing man! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Bro I can’t get the bulb to turn and come out. Hard as fuck
Yea taking the cover plate off and removing the bulb is kids difficult the first time. Feels like it’s almost stuck. Be careful not to break anything.
Do you think I can replace the light the same as in a Durango? I refuse to pay $360 for someone to replace a bulb.
krystle Adams idk, if never even sat in a Durango let alone know how the lights are setup. its not hard to replace the light though.
I was able to replace the bulb in about 10 minutes thanks to your video. They actually have an opening so you can replace the bulb above the tire. It took so twisting and maneuvering but I have small hands. So again, thank you!!!
krystle Adams you're welcome. This is why i made the vid for people to do it themselves.
Where did you order these HID lights from for that price?
Look up: D3S - OSRAM Sylvania OEM 4300K HID Bulb.
