Thank you for the video. It saddens me when I see your Stratus in such good condition. I have a 2002 that's the same color, which I love, but the Michigan Winters have really taken a toll on the body. The car literally runs like new, but it's beginning to look pretty bad. One of the best cars I've ever owned. Aside from the CV boot splitting, not one single problem with it, ever. I'm really going to miss my Stratus! 😪
My 2005 Stratus has a bulb with a different type of catch mechanism from the lamp. Not ear flaps where you simply squeeze and it releases, but like a tongue-in-groove joint that the two prongs have to be pried up from the tongue while pulling the bulb out. Glad to say I finally succeeded, with enough determination. Besides the socket, a thin blade straight screwdriver was needed. Thank you for the video.

I just replaced the driver side headlight on my 2001 Dodge Stratus. I don't think the manual said anything about the pin on the side or pulling the clips/pins to give more room. I couldn't have done it with out this video. Thank you!!! ^_^
This video helped. I have a 96 Dodge Stratus but I only had to unscrew the two screws with the star screw driver in order to take the light out and replace it. Just got finished doing it and I only spent 10 dollars for the light bulb. Thanks alot :)
I ordered headlights for my '05 Stratus Sunday evening. They arrived Tuesday morning. On top of that, shipping was free and the parts were cheaper than anywhere else I looked. "1A" is right lol.
+Joshua Pyle Thank you for your order. If you would like to leave us a review on Google it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to our reviews section. Have a great day! goo.gl/i5JFNY
Thank you very much for posting this! I might not be able to do this, but at least I know by watching if I can't do it cause I don't have all the tools.
Is There somewhere I can find where the wire harness is inside of the stratus . Earlier today I was in a junk yard and started from the front headlights of the car and stopped at the fire wall I gave up took me 2 hrs just to get up to the fire wall and decided to leave it because I dont know where to find the rest of the wire location inside of the car. I have a faulty turn signal I'm sure the previous owner when they installed the remote start hit the driver side turn signal or something because it's not working correctly I changed fuses bulbs and relays and nothing so I assume it's the wire
My driver side parking light/turn signal blinks but very dim I feel it's a bad wire but where should I start look at the front or the inside underneath the steering wheel ? I know previous owner had a remote start installed and I believe that is what's causing the issue any ideas
+Uptowns Finest Since there could be multiple reasons why you’re experiencing this difficulty with your vehicle, I strongly recommend that you have a reputable mechanic inspect it. They’ll be able to troubleshoot the problem and tell you what part or parts you’ll need for the repair. We wouldn't want to replace parts that don't need to be replaced.

I wonder if you can help. I can't find a video for this at all on YT. I have a 2006 Stratus and my antenna was broken off. How do I replace it? I can't find anything online with details and I don't want to have to take it in and pay a mechanic. Thanks for any feedback you may have.
Thank you for watching. Unfortunately we do not have a video for your application. However in most applications the horns are under the hood by the radiator. We will keep this repair in mind for future videos. 888-844-3393
+oscar traviezo Unfortunately, our assemblies do not come with the bulbs. However, you can re-use your existing bulb or purchase a new one at a local automotive center. Consult your owners manual, a repair manual, or the listing catalog at the store to purchase the correct bulb for your year/make/model. For anyone looking to replace their headlight assembly, 1A Auto offers this assembly here: www.1aauto.com/1A/HeadLights/Dodge/Stratus/1ALHP00125?TH-cam&CTA%20Comment&ATony
Can you post a driver's side? It's different from the passenger's side light and harder to do. This is the easy one, but it's hard to get your hand into the space of the driver's side one.
+Gumie35 We currently do not have an auto repair video specific to your vehicle. We will keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future. Have a great day! 1aauto.com

2000 grit sandpaper and some elbow grease can also get the yellow off the outside of the headlight very very simple easy and inexpensive fix

Thanks so much for posting this. It helped me successfully change my bulbs and saved probably $40 on one side.
I just replaced the driver side headlight on my 2001 Dodge Stratus.
I don't think the manual said anything about the pin on the side or pulling the clips/pins to give more room.
I couldn't have done it with out this video. Thank you!!! ^_^

@XxDevineSorrowxX You're welcome. Thank you for checking out our auto repair channel on TH-cam.
Thanks, I was fighting with my head light for 20 mins the other day. But I'll give it another try now.
@cesarvegamx The way the car is designed, there isn't much room (if any) to remove the bulb from the backside of the housing.

I only have one headlight adjustment for each headlight. Are the adjustment screws built in to the headlight assembly?
Thank you very much for posting this! I might not be able to do this, but at least I know by watching if I can't do it cause I don't have all the tools.
Thanks for the Vid,. I was able to swap mine out in 10 mins thanks to this. good job
Thank you, I did find 2 flat screwdrivers (one on each side of pin) helped to remove center pin and outer pin faster.
+Keith Tulbert Thank you!

Screw head broke off on the longer screw, how would you recommend getting it out?
Hi,
Is there a way to change the bulb alone without removing the whole headlight?
You could try to use a little penetrating oil on it to see if you can break it free.
Can you tell me where the horn is located in a 2005 Dodge Stratus??? I would like to replace mines but I do not know where it is.
Thank you for watching. Unfortunately we do not have a video for your application. However in most applications the horns are under the hood by the radiator. We will keep this repair in mind for future videos.

You may want to try a bulb without the blue tint to them.
Great job guys. Keep it up.
is it the same for the 04 coupes
Is it the same as on the Left side or no?
You can replace just the bulb.
I cant get that shorter bolt with the washer to unscrew, it won't budge at all, what should I do?
Thank you for this video! It helped me alot!
LuvZachAttacks We're glad the video helped you out. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393
well i managed to replace the bulbs but they seem really dim when im out driving for some reason. I replaced them with extreme blue 8000k 9007 12V

No they will not they are different in the way they attach to the car.
Thanks for your help, again.
That headlight is a fused assembly, it can't be taken apart.

Thanks for the help, i was doing it the wrong and hard way
you guys are great ... thank you ...
Thank you 🙏🏾 Sir!!
+William Clayton Thank you!
If it's snug it should be okay.
The left side will be the same.
BULB SiZe is a 9007, that would have been a great detail to add
Thanks, man!
