    thank so much! I am 75 year old woman and everytime a bulb goes out on my Forester I look up your video...have done this 3 times and it is very helpful since I forget exacctly how to do it from year to year. Also, I ordered the wrong kind of bulb last year and then checked onl your video and saw that you use sylvania h11 and I then ordered the same. You have been a great help to me.

    I'm a 65 year old woman and I was able to follow your excellent directions and change BOTH light bulbs on by 2018 Forester. Your video had clear directions and the best visuals. Thank you! I'm so proud of myself!!

    Raymond, thank you for posting this video. Please get someone to hold the camera so that viewers can focus on all the steps you are doing. I'm not clear on how to get the clip and the light to disengage. Also, please create another video for the passenger side low beam bulb change for when the air flow can be removed for access. Thanks again for the video.

      Thanks for the comments. I'll work on making the video clearer. My subaru doesn't require me to take th airflow piece off.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful video. Had to change a bulb for the first time, and your video was the only one that mentioned the tab that had to be pushed to release the bulb.

    This is the second video I watched about replacing the bulbs and this one is hands down 100% better. The first one, the guy didn't even bother removing the bulb from the housing, kept saying 'really simple', and quite honestly, after watching this one I have to say I don't think the first one was even accurate. Sad, because the first one was the first one Google recommended... Any who, thanks a bunch for the details.

    Thank you. I was struggling with getting the old bulb out of the clip, and you made it so clear. I'm the same demographic as the previous comment from 8 months ago, and I'm proud to have been able to change the headlights myself because you made it so clear. 🙂

    Really helpful, exactly the kind of video I needed. I’ve never changed a lightbulb before, and I like the conciseness of the video.

    Very to the point and simple explanation. The air breather assembly does come off very easy and goes back on with just a couple of the plastic fasteners if the person has extra large hands or just wants more room to move.

    I changed the low bulbs and they work proper but there is a bus when i turn on the lights on manually. There is no tone when it's on automatic. Any suggestions?

    • @RaymondCanDoIt

      Sorry, I don't have any suggestions. Maybe try to re install the bulbs?

    What if it still doesn't work after replacing them ... I read it might be an issue with the fuse box?

      I would recommend going to advance auto parts or autozone. Their websites can tell you. Or you can go in the store and they can help your there.

    One hint: If you are working one-handed, leave the bulb in the car while you unplug it, then take it out by twisting it.
