Thank you! From a girl with no car knowledge, attempting to change my own out. I feel confident I can do it now!
Glad I could help!
Two of the best mechanic/soldiers I serve with are female, keep striving to learn ! Barring tools there is nothing you can't fix !
Thank you for clarifying “2008-2011” instead of just 2010, and thank you for teaching this appreciative broke dude.
Thank you so much Falcon! You are my mechanic. My plan was to do it myself but ended up showing the parts guy what you have taught us to do on your channel. You're a BLESSING! I saved $$. Keep'em coming...
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much!! Literally saved me $140 in service fees❤❤❤
Just a note to say thank you so much for showing us how to do this. After your video I was able to do this all on my own with little fus. Xo
Great job!
This is the way it works at Beetles from 2006 to 2011. Models before had another type of headlights.
you told me about the clips that slide into the headlight housing and I didn't listen but about an hour in of trying to figure out why the headlight won't turn on I rewatched the video and figured it out thank you 😂
hey at least is working now! LOL
Just looked this up to fix my daughters car. Automatic sub! Very informative and nicely detailed video! Thank you!!!!
Thanks
Thank you! I have removed 3 of these without pushing down the metal tab until #4 refused to come out. I had no idea that tab existed!
Thank you for the video from Lake of the Ozarks. I was about to get pissed off at this bug 😂
Thank you!!!
Just doing this job for my daughter- really helpful🙏👍
Thanks for the video! I have been putting off doing this because I figured it was complicated, but looks simple enough with your explanation
I could not figure this out. Thank you for posting. So simple.
Thank you!! Was struggling to get the light can out. Your very informative video helped tremendously!
Glad it helped!
@@FalconsGarage maybe you have a solution to my headlight problem.
I have an '06 Beetle with 2.5L engine.
Left headlight will not stay in all the way so it loses contact and goes off. Any tips? The lock mechanism is good, but may vibrate down? The little aluminum lever is good, and keeps it from falling out. If we smack it hard enough, the light comes back on. Ouch!
I bought the car used. It may have gone 'off road' if you know what I mean.
Thanks!
very nice video, i have 2010 beetle in Brazil.
Thanks for watching!
You've saved me from hours of embarrassment trying to figure this out. Might even get lucky now haha. This is what the internet is made for!
Lol
Thanks. Your pretty thuro on directions and make it easy to understand how to do things. Others say oh wait I have to put the camera down to do it ill show you after it's out and always forget to.
Thank you very much, out here saving lives for real :)
Happy to help
Thank you! Your video is still at work
Thank you for this. Great explanation!
Thank you 🙏🥰🥰🥰
Thahk You!!!!
Great video!! I found this so my stepdad could change the headlight bulbs that had gone out! I’m not sure if it’s possible to not have to take out the battery on the right side to change the bulb? We had to take it out but maybe there’s a way not to idk. Great video so helpful thank you!!!
Thank you for this short and detailed video. 👍
THANK YOU SO MUCH! (Greetings from the ozark mountains! Arkansas side!)

Welcome
Great video!! Much better lighting than others I've seen!
Please advise. '08 beetle I'm looking to upgrade from standard bulbs to LED. Please give me a site that I can purchase appropriate bulbs and headlight assembly or do they come as a package?
i would try ebay or amazon
*** Thanks for the video!!
-> One of our VW bugs has a headlight out, & the local auto shops wanted waaay too much money to replace it.
Thank U..
Thanks boss
Welcome
You took the easy one off in this video, the other one is actually difficult to remove
not that hard
Seen the other side is harder.... The battery is in the way! How do you get around that?
I didnt have to remove the battery on this car .. there was plenty of space to go around it
I should have waited for your reply, but I spent 5 hours trying to figure out how to do it!
Thanks for getting back to me.
Yes, the battery side is intimidating, but after careful inspection, and rewatching the video we were able to get it out and back in successfully!
@@alankatoxct can you let me know what you did? I’m struggling as well. I’m thinking of buying a very thin socket wrench extension cuz I can’t get in to loosen the hold
@@FalconsGarage the 08 beetle definitely has the battery components in the way. Your video was great though - helped a lot for the passenger side headlight
Could you do a video on how to re-aim the Beetle headlights? There are videos for other VWs, but it's impossible to work under a Beetle hood without disassembling something.
Nice:)
Thanks 😁
It would be helpful to me if you could describe how to replace the headlight bulb on the other side - there are more and different parts in the way. In another comment, you mention that it's not that hard but yeah, I think that's easy for you to say. I have no idea what I'm doing.
patience is key, look for the tab that you need access too and remove what ever is on the way
Ok kenny powers
All of us dads here for their daughters car :) my daughters 2010 red rock driver side popped out and she ran it over. I ordered a new one and it just snapped in place. I dont see any screws etc to “lock” it into place. Am I missing something?
Just replaced Our 2010 beetles bulbs. It worked at first, now it seems the head lights are not making a good connection to the harness any ideas?
remove it again .. and check connector and the safety clips
@@FalconsGarage safety clips and connector seems fine, its just still not getting a good connection. The other side is working fine. Once i push it in a little it will start working but after a day or just it running it will stop working.
How can you get the headlight out if that metal lever to unlock it is missing?
hey guys don’t strip the plastic piece
I don't get it, on some car forums folks badmouth VW for requiring "special"/dealer only tools for this job. I tended to believe their whining as I often see Beetles with 1 burned out headlight...or daytime running light.
I didnt use any special tools .. dont know what they are talking about
May be, like mine, the lock mechanism is loose and connection is not good until it is punched back in.
I may have to carry a small tool bag in the car, with the 5mm socket and extension and wrench. May be less painful.
Great video, so easy. Unfortunately my right headlight still does not work. I removed & reinstalled- still no work. Any suggestions ? My Right rear yellow turn signal does not work either. All fuses are good.. Can that yellow bulb being out stop my headlight from working ? Right turn signal blinks very fast. Any tips are appreciated. Will
At this point I would attack it with a test light. If the assembly is getting power then the issue is on the head light assembly. Be patient and one step at a time.
@@FalconsGarage Thanks, I tested feeder connector & discovered that it was not making a good connection with the actual headlight. I did some jerry rigging on the back of the bucket & got the connections to plug in all the way. Lights on ! Not hem, but they work none the less. Thanks for the suggestion & your video.
@@willschmahl1240 Good day sir.. Im having the same issues. After you Got the head light to work did your blinkers flash slower?
@@benbertagnolli4411 yes it did. The actual bucket that is screwed to the fender has plastic that helps align the connector when you install the light- I just cut that small guide so I could connect by hand.. Fixed all my issues… on the car anyway..
What about the security of de unit at the end, that whose make it isnt fell down
Speak English not jibberish
What about the daytime running light
Is this different to the sport? I can’t find that first lock.
you have to find that 5 mm twist lock ? mine was not as easy to find or get to, looks like mine is bent...maybe yours is bent too ?
Wnat about the driver side??
Troo bien les sous sous-titres francais
Why do ppl keep telling me you have to change the bumper to do this?
what tool do i use to unscrew it?? to unlock it?
5mm socket
How do you adjust the beam height?
it should have adjusters on the side
@@FalconsGarage
My set up was actually totally different than the one you showed
That’s now how all of them work just fyi
did not show where the tab is..
Has anyone ever told you that you look like a Mexican Danny McBride
yes .. here on the channel ... LOL
That's great
Oh and thanks you helped me fix my bug
I broke that piece today. Fragile plastic.
2001 is wayyyy different my guy
why aren’t my lights turning on, I replaced the bulb
what time machine is this
lol
@@FalconsGarage no really make one
2002 is not the same
Thanks
