I have watched half a dozen videos to do this. Yours is by far the best explanation and best camera views. I am 74 years old and I did it with no help, thanks to you. Muchas Gracias!
Tire kingdom wanted to charge me $150 for this (he said hour and a half labor plus the part). I laughed it off, went to Advance and got the bulb for $15, and switched it myself thanks to your video. You the man!!
Cheers mate. Noticed my left headlight was out at the beginning of the night when I was doing a Lyft run. Made it a lot harder to see, especially since it was also raining. Found this guide, went to Walmart to get a new bulb, and changed it in like 5 minutes. You're officially my hero.
This video saved me hours. The owner's manual directs you to remove the retaining bolts and remove the headlight assembly from the vehicle. I couldn't get it out and came here and you saved my night. Thanks!!
Easiest video to understand & straight to the point. It was my 1st time changing the bulb & with this video, I comfortably did it in less than 10 minutes.
I went to AutoZone to buy the replacement bulbs and casually asked if they could install them. They said no, there's a compartment that they can't get to. I said, no problem. I had already watched your video so I was pretty confident I could do it myself, but it would have been nice if they could do it. Went home and got both bulbs replaced in about 10 minutes. Thanks for your very helpful video!
I’m a girl that doesn’t know much about cars but this video empowered me to change my bulbs myself. Took me less than 10 mins for both. Thank you for such a great video!
Thanx for the video,it was very helpful.Wish I would of seen this vid when my bulbs burned out the first time. My Kia dealership didn't put the clip on correctly, it was hanging off the bulb and they said it was broken, so they said i needed to buy a whole new headlight assembly(paid 343 dollars for a new one, but didn't have it installed ) i was looking to see if i could put the clip back on myself. Low and behold i found several vids on how to install headlight bulbs. I successfully got my bulb installed.(that clip was a pain to get back on) I wanted to switch back to my Sylvania SilverStar Ultras(The Kia dealership recommended i go back to the OEM bulbs beforehand) Long story short,I found your vid and installed them myself:) My Kia dealership gave me a credit for the headlight, but i hate going there for anything....
You can never trust dealerships - they will always want to scam you. They usually tell you that you need so many things to get done when there is nothing wrong. I hate when they tell customers to get their engine cleaned or need to change brake fluid. Those are the worst scams ever since you literally never need to change brake fluid - ever.
the only part that gave me a bit of an issue was getting the metal clip back in the right position. Got it done and saved myself money. Thanks for sharing this.
That's why I made this video. So you guys don't get scammed by mechanics. Also would like to comment that you usually never need all the services they tell you at the dealership
The reason you dont want to touch the light bulb is because, even with washed hands, our natural oils stick to the lightbulb and the glass get super hot so it will unevenly expand. If you touched the light bulb (like i did) just rub it off with some rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth. It also helps using gloves!
Glad to help out. It’s always better to do it yourself. I also got a video of how to do an oil change in this kia. It’s really easy and you don’t even need to lift up the car.
A lot of money saved since I had friends tell me how at the dealership they go in to change the headlight bulb and come out paying $1000 because they had to repair or replace the entire thing. Which is a typical dealership scam
Thanks for the video dude. Got my oil changed and: what a surprise, a head light wasn't working afterwards. Got pulled over TWICE for it last night. I was hoping for the hat trick but it didn't happen.
I recommend doing your own oil changes - specially with a kia since it’s so easy. You don’t even need to lift the car from the ground. I got a video on it
I’m sure you’ve seen cars with those strong LEds and it almost looks like they got their high beams on , so I would recommend not to make that switch because it’s annoying to others
Thank you sir. Very helpful. Not much room behind the light. Hard to see. Could not photograph the socket to see the clip. Not sure how you got a camera in there. Thanks for the help!
Dealership is using a scam. They will tell you to change a bunch of things that most of the time never ever need changing. It's always better to do it yourself. Kias are pretty simple. I also have a video on oil change and it's extremely easy
FYI, when I purchased the bulb at Autozone, they gave me a glove to wear so I wouldn't touch the bulb when installing. They said this could cause it to burn out.
You said that on a Kia Soul there was only one bulb, I just had to change the OTHER ONE on my wife's 2012 Soul. Please, viewers, always do your research buy watching several TH-cam videos before accepting one as accurate. LOL
Seven years later and this video just helped me out. Thanks!

Yup - that’s what they usually do. Scam the clients as much as they can.
Just changed my headlight and thanks to your video it took me less than 10 minutes. Thanks! Video is short and to the point, much appreciated.
Glad it helped!

What brand light bulb did you get for you 2010 kia soul if you remember lol
@@look7381 I believe it was Sylvania 9003?
@RedWolgon I'll take a look, thank you for replying 😊
This video saved me hours. The owner's manual directs you to remove the retaining bolts and remove the headlight assembly from the vehicle. I couldn't get it out and came here and you saved my night. Thanks!!
Lol. I'm not sure if they do that on purpose so people end up going to a mechanic for something so simple. This is as easy as the oil change.
Only thing missing here is the Corona beer on the side. Great video, thanks for explaining it and making it so easy for the rest of us.

Pretty sure you saved at least $100 by doing it yourself
I’m a girl that doesn’t know much about cars but this video empowered me to change my bulbs myself. Took me less than 10 mins for both. Thank you for such a great video!
Thanks so much man. I'm 40 years old and I just changed my first headlight. Thank you for being a good teacher!
Thanks for the concise and informative video. $20 and 15 minutes to get a fresh set of lamps in my kia soul.
You just saved me so much money. The shop told me installation alone would cost over $100!! Thank you!

I've changed both bulbs over the past month thanks to your video. Thanks for making this!
This was very helpful! I couldn't figure out how to change them until I found this video. Thank you so much!

Muchas gracias. Tu video me ayudo muchisimo. Me perdonas que no tengo teclado espanol. 😅
un gusto poder ayudar
I followed your directions and was able to replace my 2011 Soul headlamp without drama. Thanks so much for posting!

you just saved me 100 dollars, you're awesome
That was easy, your instructions were great. Money saved!

So true. Thanks again for your help.
Thank you for the headlight replacement instruction. This made it a quick and easy fix.
Glad to help out

This is a good video I'm heading outside now to put a headlight in my girlfriend's car thanks again
Glad I could help
Thank you for the video. Made changing the headlights quick and painless.
Thank you, that was very helpful. It took away my anxiety about changing it or paying someone. Thanks, again.
its very easy and cheap. Also - if you want to do an oil change in a kia soul - its also very very easy.
acguevara It was easy! I took care of it just about an hour ago. I followed your steps exactly and it worked! I appreciate your honesty.
Glad to help out. Air filter is also easy. Actually air filter is 10x easier than this - since it’s more accessible. And I got a video of that also.
This was so helpful! I was able to change the bulb in less than 5 minutes. Thank you!
Thank you! And thank you for saying, "make sure your lights are off." Lol 'Preciate it!
Thanks! This was easy to understand, and I followed your instructions to change the bulb in my 2011 Soul.
Angie, what's the model of the bulb?
Thank you for getting right to the point!
Glad to help out
I'm very grateful for your help
Man’s a legend 🙏
Thanks man for the video. Great job and very helpful.
Glad it helped
Thanks for the video! Had both lights changed in under 10 min.
Glad to help out , don’t forget to subscribe
Thank you for making this so easy to follow.
Is there a video that teaches how to replace the bulb with a stronger led for night time? great video by the way!
I’m sure you’ve seen cars with those strong LEds and it almost looks like they got their high beams on , so I would recommend not to make that switch because it’s annoying to others
@@TechandDesign I totally agree...(I see them on the road very often..and I hated them) but the OEM headlight on my 2011 Soul..is just way too dim..
Thank you sir. Very helpful. Not much room behind the light. Hard to see. Could not photograph the socket to see the clip. Not sure how you got a camera in there. Thanks for the help!
glad I watched this. I was trying to take the whole assembly out like I have to do in my Hyundai! thanks for the simple informative video!
So easy! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for this video! I changed both of my headlights in my Kia Soul today. 😁
Thanks! If I tried it myself without looking at this video I probably would have broke something.
Thank you! Made it so easy!
Hi. Would like to know what brand light bulb I should get
Thank you! I actually fixed something!

Thank you, very easy you just saved me $$$. I used to always go to my dealership.

What is the model of the bulb? Can I purchase on Amazon? Thanks!
Thank you!
Great help thanks
Glad to help out
A mechanic replaced my bulb and now it shines down and not equal with the other side. How do I fix that?
if a mechanic did the job - you should go back so they can fix it. don’t touch it
Trying it now and will update once completed
Thank you
i just did a victory dance in the auto part store parking lot
Lol. Just in case I got a video on how to do an oil change yourself. It’s easy and you only need 2 tools
Thanks
You said that on a Kia Soul there was only one bulb, I just had to change the OTHER ONE on my wife's 2012 Soul. Please, viewers, always do your research buy watching several TH-cam videos before accepting one as accurate. LOL
Are you talking about the fog light ?
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Can't Hear You!!!
I got a headache watching this video
Does not show how to snap the bulb in place, worthless video!
