I just got some bulbs as a gift for my 2015 corolla(same lights as 2014). So, here's the fact. It already has LED for the main driving lights = low beam light. Do you see the "magnifying lens" that's a project lens=LED. Doesn't need replacement bulb, and you cannot remove it, either. It's part of the light housing assy. However, the high beam bulb(H3) is Halogen, so you can replace it. I also have a 2nd corolla(2000), which has a single head light bulb that is for both regular/high beam function. I will use the H4 for that.
Thanks for the video. I need to replace the low beams and now know I need to buy the entire headlamp. So disappointing those can't be replaced like the high beams.
Are the high beam lights suppose to be on at night or only when you’re using high beam lights ? Only my balance lights turn on when I’m driving at night is why I’m asking if the high beam lights needs to be on ?
If you’d want to replace lows you gotta get the entire unit out and replace it. Getting out the entire unit means removing the bumpers without damaging the tyre well alignment and getting the bottom splash guard out plus disconnecting the grill plus disconnecting fog lamps etc.
@@hennesy8762 You can’t swap the bulb on the low beam. You can replace only the high beam. The bulb codes should be on the video. To swap the entire headlight you might just look for the year of your car for example 2019 Toyota Corolla headlight and it brings the low beam bulb attached to the whole assembly
It is what it is. I prefer a car with warm white halogen bulbs, so that we can upgrade with led bulbs that’s brighter than stock, and brighter than factory led. Realize a led headlight assembly like fully led, would be around $1100 per side.
@@chauffeurmarco cost effective wise? If u prefer fully led headlights that’s a no brainer. But keep in mind, when after few years, when they go out. U gotta replace the headlight assembly. And it cost between $800+ - $1100+ per headlight. Not in pairs. That’s why I said, I prefer oem reflector or projector headlight assembly that’s $150-$300 a pair. Full of halogen and incandescent bulbs, so we can swap with led that’s much brighter than factory led.
Also, be aware that these replacement LED bulbs can burn out even though it says. 50,000 hrs. The LED is fine, but the fan motor burns out, then the circuitry get's hot.
It also depends on how much temperature it builds up. The higher the temperature, the shorter the lifespan. The lower the temperature, the longer the lifespan is. And according to car light reviews and its testing environment. The Auxito - M3 he tested, after 27 minutes of run time which is the average commuter time in the US. It gets slight on a cooler side 121 degrees Fahrenheit.
I was trying to do this but my stupid dad kept making things difficult for no reason. Like Jesus Christ he would not stop freaking out and acting like the car was gonna blow up. God I had this pos always makes things difficult and stresses things for no reason
Bro thank you for explaining the lo-beams. I was scratching my head for an hour trying to figure out where the bulb access was
You are welcome brother😂 Yeah I was a little confused at first also….. This Texas heat was not making it any easier😂
Looking good. I was wondering how to change the regular headlamp bulb. Now I've learned that I can't.✌🏾
🤣🤣🤣🤣Rough realization

Oh nice so the bulbs I just bought aren't even for the low beams. Awesome.
Sorry to hear that brother...
Excellent demonstration brother

Thank you so much!! It was very helpful to me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
glad it helped

I look around no way I can’t replace
And I look your video thanks for the information
I know, It’s hard to believe that Toyota did this to us 🥹🥹

I'm sure they do it on purpose
@@mambrake what headlight can I get for my Corolla S so I can swap out the low beam bulb?

Can you change a headlight on a 2015 model without taking the bumper off
I have not tried that model year.
What size does a 2020 Toyota Corolla SE take?
You would have to google it as I don’t know
Damn toyota got us
😂😂😂😂🙏
Which one fits? The hb3?
I said it at the end of the video. The HB3 9005 are the only one we could replace on this car
@@mambrake thanks
@@erikfernandogonzalescortez6027 Only the high beams can be replaced
Me too, lo beams, very sad that you need replace whole thing
Lighting unit low replacement has been made real impossible over the last decad😂
They have made it very difficult for us..
High beams are used 0.1% of the time compared to the low beams.
@@24theMoney yes sir. They know where to make you spend the money 💰
@@mambrake Yeah, nobody wants to have the "ghetto" halogen lighting anymore.
5%-10%.
@@24theMoneyand there’s nothing ghetto about traditional halogen. That’s just silly.
But led is the way to go.
I dont know why they put a yellow light as high beam. It ridiculous

@ no, really! Why Toyota didn’t do like the rest and just put white ones as high beams?

Are you serious man, i have to replace the whole frame?
The entire light frame yes
Low beam is the scam Toyota has apparently created.
That was a very bad idea. Not allowing us to replace them ourselves… we have to buy the entire headlight
@@mambrakeWHAT?
@@lunaticleone8534 The idea of Toyota not allowing us to be able to replace the low beam bulb sucks
lol there’s nothing scam about it.
U guys need to figure out if ur vehicle is equipped with factory led and one is not.
Not that hard.

Anyone can change the bulbs, you just need common sense lol, only reason I’m here is to find what the low beam type is lol
Please tell me you playing………You would have to saw open the lamp😔😔😳
So how did it go? Did your “common sense” show you how to do it?
