Thank you so much for this video! It was exactly what I needed. Super helpful step0by-step instructions and tips for better life! This is so much appreciated!!!
I always appreciate someone taking the time to help out fellow people, in this case by making a demonstration video. Take care and good luck out there.
Thanks brother man, I try to get straight to the point no fluff. People come here for answers not how to make coffee first lol. If you ever run into anything let me know I’m always around for advice.
Thanks for the info on when you change one, change the other one too. Have to change drivers side headlight and then change passenger side as well. Great video.
These are the EASIEST Bulbs to change. I work for AUTOZONE and we, as a courtesy, sometimes change the headlights. I have a 2014 KIA Sorrento and I changed both bulbs in less than 10 minutes. We (AUTOZONE) sell the Halogen Headlight Installation kit ( Bulb Grease & Gloves ) in one package for around $2
@@MrV2u Only bad thing, is that we can't do as much as we used to because of CVD19. The Company has us on lockdown as far as how much we can do for the customers. Customers complain. But, hey, FU ! I'm not going to lose my job and/or get hit with a $10,00.00 fine because we're not following Safety Protocols.
It's funny my driver side light went out just as in the video. First Time Kia Buyer and I like to do repairs as much as possible. Glad this is an easier fix than most.
As long as you keep up with the maintenance it should last a long time brother. I got a video on changing the oil, if your inclined to do it yourself. Save yourself some money I always say. Let me know if you ever have questions on it. Thanks for the feedback brother.
@@MrV2u starting to get into the oil changes so I will check it out. I heard the last of the oil is always the hardest and longest part when changing oil. It's a time thing.
I’d recommend using the fogs all the time brother. The headlights alone are horrible. If you don’t have fogs maybe a LED upgrade will help out dramatically. The kits are pretty much all plug and play. Thanks for the feedback Boí
Thanks! Just did it because my husband wasn't home and said to myself, "Why not?!" Didn't touch the bulb! But held onto it with new eyeglass cleaning cloth. Who knows what I'll fix next?!😅😉 Ha! Thanks again!

@@bethannedonovan9436 hey this is why I make my videos. I try to be thorough and to the point. I bet you can do more than you think. I have a video on changing the oil. Impress your husband lol.
💯 Bossman Video! I tip my hat 🎩 to you sir! I searched to just double check that it was this style of a headlight change, but didn’t know about the grease, or gloves. They sold me one light for like 27$ I dig the changing both and keeping secondary as the new the back up. Appreciate you taking the time to share knowledge! Cause you’re right headlights go out at night time.
In case anyone else has confusion, the video here shows the replacement of the "low-beam" headlights, not the "high beam" headlamps. For my 2015 Sorento LX, each high & low headlamp have their own compartment under the hood and they each have a dedicated bulb. Also I found out that daytime lights are using the high beam headlamp, and if your in a pinch you can manually set the lights to what is called "marker or parking" lights mode on the steering column. It will illuminate your rear lights and also your daytime headlamps. If in doubt you can pull the dead bulb and read the part number off the bulb, or my user manual lists the bulb part numbers (just no help in replacing or position of them on my car).
Thank you very much, changing headlight bulbs on a sorento is way easier than charging headlights on a Dodge stratus, I should know because I owned two Dodge stratus vehicles
Hi! Does this cover both low and high beam? Thanks so much, I will be using your video in the next day or so, and will do both lights! My drivers side low beam is out but the high beam still works
There is only one bulb for high and low beams. Your high beams work because there is 2 filaments inside each bulb, if one breaks it doesn’t necessarily knock the other one out. Let me know how you make out.
@@MrV2u I did it! I probably didn't do it as well as you did. But they work! Thank you! I am making my own video for fun, and will put a link to your channel in it!
@@AntiqueCarsRCool glad it worked out for you. Good luck on your channel and thanks for the shout out. If you ever have any questions I’m always around for advice.
@@MrV2u Rhank you so much! I will subscribe, and will let you know when video is up... It's not nearly as good as yours, more for humor, but I am going to let everyone know where I got the tips!
Towards the right of the drivers side cap where you replace the bulb in a white housing is a Philips head screw. You want to turn it in our out to lift or lower the beam.
@@MrV2u thank you so much for you video and your response, it was very helpful and it made very easy for me to change my lites without any other help. Thank you!!👍
I changed mine (low beam). When I turned it on the high beam weren’t even working anymore and they were before I replaced the low beam. What did I do wrong?
If the led’s are plug and play then you will connect the bulbs to the ballast and then to the wire harness on the car. It’s a easy job to do Eric. Let me know how you make out if you go that route.
@@MrV2u tapped it like you said. Tried to twist with my hand and cracked that black plastic cover in half and part of it fell down into the dome area. Still can’t get the bulb out and I’m afraid to break anything even worse 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
The important thing not mentioned is that there are also high beams too, which on my 2014 KIA Sorento SX Limited are the INSIDE set of bulbs. The outside "projection" ones are the headlights. Each has different bulbs, which is very important when ordering. It also matters what model type you have (base, SX, SX Limited, etc) because they may have a different type of light configuration. None of that was addressed in this video.
It doesn’t come with it. They have small packets usually by the register. Ask for a small packet of dielectric grease if not. Let me know how you make out! Good luck.
@@MrV2u thank you for your reply. I went to advanced auto, and they had on record the H11 for low beam replacement. Is that right or is the H7 for the 2015 kia sorento?
@@MrV2u I’m pretty sure it’s the high beam on my 2015 sorento SXL? When I turn my highs on, this is the bulb that shines, when they’re off it’s the other one which is a totally different style bulb.
@@realsugeknight take whatever bulb it is that you have and match it up at the store brother. The one that I replaced in the video is the headlight and not high beam .
I have a 2012 Kia Sorento and I cannot for the life of me get out the old bulb that is in there, the part that you're supposed to push down to remove the bulb broke off and I cannot remove the bulb. Does anyone have any suggestions?
If you have needle nose pliers grab the tip of metal and push it in and twist at the same time. You will bend the metal but don’t worry it will come out. Put some of the grease inside when your done, and if you have corrosion get a electric contact cleaner from auto zone or advanced auto. Let me know how you make out my friend.
Go to a junk yard get everything needed. Fog light assembly and switches. Not sure if they come prewired or you might have to run wires throughout the car yourself. Or you can go after market and get a set and install as per directions. Hope that helps.

Changed them yesterday Yellow Low - Green High
I changed mine (low beam). When I turned it on the high beam weren’t even working anymore and they were before I replaced the low beam. What did I do wrong?
Try flipping the wire harness. Do the headlights work though?
What if you are installing led lights. Is it the same install?
If the led’s are plug and play then you will connect the bulbs to the ballast and then to the wire harness on the car. It’s a easy job to do Eric. Let me know how you make out if you go that route.
Mine will not twist out. Idk what to do. They are locked in pretty tight
Give it a couple taps with the back of a screwdriver, if not get a set of plies on it and gently twist it back and forth. Don’t crush it though.
@@MrV2u tapped it like you said. Tried to twist with my hand and cracked that black plastic cover in half and part of it fell down into the dome area. Still can’t get the bulb out and I’m afraid to break anything even worse 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
What causes light to not turn on, but when tapped or moved it turns on, its not bright.
A light that’s about to go or possibly some corrosion on the contacts. Could also be a wire that’s damaged in a spot.

Why the grease?
The grease is a extra preventative against corrosion. You can do it without but run the risk of getting moisture in your contacts.
@@MrV2u did the grease come with the purchase of the lights? On our way to the store to get replacement bulbs. And if not what kind of grease?
