It's the second time I've had to replace the bulb in my 2013 and I was delighted to remember that I've seen the same RUclips presentation before. the speaker is quiet and understated but he does an excellent job of getting right to the point. well done thank you again for taking the time. it makes it so much easier when you have somebody doing it before you and showing you the little things like which end is up.
KLB: Always change both bulbs. Two practical reasons: 1) the older a bulb gets, the lesser or dimmer its light output gets. Replacing both bulbs helps insure that their lumen outputs are equal. 2) if one bulb gets busted from normal use, chances are that the remaining bulb is also nearing its useful life. Replacing both bulbs might save you the trouble of changing the old busted bulb on a dark road. Keep the other but still usable bulb in the car with you for peace of mind 👍It will act as ready reserve when you're on the road, just in case. And as Aurasifia Alvarez said, never touch the glass part of the headlight when handling them. Oil on your fingers will smudge the glass and create hot spots when you turn them on. Hot spots will severely affect longetivity. Cheers 😀
Marinduque - The Heart of the Philippines Thanks for the tips! I will replace both bulbs. I’ve seen drivers with one headlight dim while the other one is more bright at night. I just ordered my lightbulbs. So I have to pick them up after work tomorrow. I don’t drive much at night... but when I do, I like to make sure all of my lights work.
Marinduque - The Heart of the Philippines I will let you know how it went. My hubby is out of town for a couple of days. I don’t want to wait until he returns to change them out. And it’s good to know how to take care of car maintenance in situations like mine on my own. Plus, I don’t want to get stopped and be given a ticket either 😉
Marinduque - The Heart of the Philippines I did it! I hurried home from work to change the bulbs out. It was so easy to get to where the bulbs were at. They are so bright at night on the road. I think they’re too bright. But better bright than dum or no light at all.
@@klb6453 KLB Impressive! I'm happy for you on a job well-done and the confidence it gives us DIYs. 😆🎶 When I replaced my headlights, I had a bit of a struggle undoing the metal clip holder/lock since it was out of sight and had to rely on feel (Jazz 2nd gen).if I may, what model & year do you have? But no matter what, enjoy the self-satifaction (and that lingering glow) of not only completing the job but doing it well.👍
This video is getting a like from me because I literally had to change a bulb minutes ago. I’m clueless about cars and I was scared, but I did it. And it works. Phew. 😅
This is so appreciated! I watched the video once and then replaced the bulb in less time than it would take to watch the video again . . . and I'm not handy.
Going to use your method to change out the bulbs in my ‘09 Fit Sport because after 12 years, the original left high beam just went out. Edit: the job took ten minutes for both sides. Getting the little retaining clip took the longest to put back where it belonged.
Good video. Follow these steps EXACTLY and DO NOT listen to the videos that try to sell you the LED conversion kits. Those conversion kits do NOT fit properly because the rubber boot does not fit over the heat sink of the LED lamps. In those videos trying to sell you the LED conversion kits, they make it look like you can unscrew the bulb without removing the rubber boot, and you can simply screw the bulb in, all without removing the boot. That is a complete LIE and those videos are designed to make LED conversion kits look easy and trick you into buy them. Don't fall for it and just replace with a normal hallogen bulb and follow this video!
Good to see an easy "how to" on the light bulb replacement. the #9003 headlight bulb fits almost all Honda Fits. If you're not sure, ask the counter person at the local auto parts store for help. If you don't trust that person, ask for the whole parts person or the manager for help
Did you replace one headlight or both headlights? I have to replace my Honda Fit Sport left headlight tomorrow. These are the original stock light bulbs. So not sure if I should replace both lightbulbs with new ones, or just replace the left one?
AuraSofia Alvarez Your video was so helpful. Yes, the project went very well. The installation was easy to do. In fact a couple nights later, I was driving and another driver in the opposite direction was flashing their lights. They must have thought I had my high beams on. I did not. But at least I knew I replaced the lights properly.
Thank you for this. Wish I'd seen it before I fumbled around figuring it out on my 2009. Everyone else took apart the bumper and entire assembly. Sylvania is pronounced Sill vane ee uh, fyi. 🙂
Syed Usman Ali So we got the sylvania ultras 2 pk which were $44. The stock are about $11 ea + shipping & tax and are probably less bright. Up to you which is worth more but here's the spec: Bulb, Headlight (HB2) (12V 60/55W) (Stanley) - Honda (33111-SR3-A01)

Your video also works for a 2012 Fit. I couldn't have figured it out with your video. Thanks.
Finally someone who reads their car manual and doesn't take off their front bumper.

This worked on a 2010 Honda Fit. Thanks for saving me the time and money!

Followed your steps and bulb replacement went perfectly! Thank you!
Thank you! I just followed this and changed my headlight bulb myself for the first time ever.
Thanks for the help! Just changed my 2015 Honda Fit headlights with this video!!
This is so appreciated! I watched the video once and then replaced the bulb in less time than it would take to watch the video again . . . and I'm not handy.
Easy and simple. Helped me out to know what to do ahead of time. Thanks G

thanks for posting video. i am pretty useless, and it took several tries to get the right sequence to put everything thing back in one piece.
Very helpful, thanks man
Thank you !!!So helpful
Just did this in a few more mins than your video thanks a bunch!!
This guided me in replacing burnt-out H4 headlight on my Jazz/Fit 2010. Well explained! Thank you 👍

@@klb6453 Posted your reply on comments.
KLB sorry for the delay, we replaced both so it’s equal brightness hope your project went well.

Much appreciation
Thank you I have a 2010 I'm about to do this now I appreciate your instruction

What type of white bulbs did you use ???
Sue that I don't want to go to led
Thanks
How long does the bulbs lasts? On package it mentioned 147hrs total life, Any update on it please.
Is there an upper bulb too? My upper passenger bulb is out
Easiest thing ever! Was about to take it to jiffy lube, money/life saver!!
For Honda Civic Black Edition 2014..??
Some video please

Would this work on a Honda Fit 2007?
Same question
Remember don't let it fall forw...too late. Mine fell into the lamp.
Which stock bulbs come in honda fit 2012 from factory ?
Syed Usman Ali So we got the sylvania ultras 2 pk which were $44. The stock are about $11 ea + shipping & tax and are probably less bright. Up to you which is worth more but here's the spec: Bulb, Headlight (HB2) (12V 60/55W) (Stanley) - Honda (33111-SR3-A01)
@@sofiaalvarez8798 i cant get sylvania in my country. However which one in philips would you like to suggest for brighter ,whiter and long vision?
Syed Usman Ali I would go for the Xtremevision
@@sofiaalvarez8798 i guess bulbs wudnt get me the required white and bright light. I shud go for leds.
Should’ve watched this video before taking off the metal retaining clip
I don't recommend the Ultra bulbs. I only got about 12 or 13 months use out of mine. Very short life.
take off her frount bumper......lol
