I was looking everywhere for a video of removing the headlights all I got was changing the bulbs ones which you can’t do on mine without removing them 👍
More than just a really big THANK YOU!
Thanks. You've convinced me that I do not have the skill to do this. Damn. I envy your ability and your optimism. What would take a mechanically competant man 1 hour would take me about ten.
You can do it. As I did today. As a 49 year old woman lol. Took me 2 hours mostly because my car had some side damage so I had to bend the frame a bit back in place.
Shoutout to this video, as it's the only clear visual of the retaining pin on the headlight assembly that I was able to find anywhere online. Mine jumped out, and I was trying to figure out the mechanism without being able to see it and taking my headlight entirely out. Props!
Thank you for such a thorough, well explained, great angles/video/shot, shortcut included video!
Thank you for spending all the extra time and working into the night to get those good angles, and do it right!
Thank you!! I was looking everywhere for a video for installing new headlamps. My ‘13 Fits headlights are scratched and damaged and I also didn’t put the rubbing gaskets back because of the LEDS. Thank you for sharing to just cut the gaskets to fit! You just saved my new headlamps!
VERY helpful. Saved me a TON of time not removing whole bumper. Thank you brother.
THANKS BUDDY SAVED ME FROM TAKING THE BUMPER OFF BROKE A FEW CLIPS BUT ITS BACK IN AND DID JUST THEY WAY U DID SHOW WORKED PERFECTLY.
Great video, two points: When pulling it out the plastic part under the fender has a tab that can be finicky to get loose, I used a flat head screwdriver to keep it wedged open. When putting it back together, do the front under bolt first, it can be hard to get right when everything else is secured.
They're very finicky to get loose and most of the time they getting break...
Excellent video and tips. Instead of removing the bumper this makes the job so easier.
Thank you, for walking through step by step truly kept me watching how it all works. Definitely got a subscriber
People like this guys have a special place in my heart. No homo bro. Thanks for the vid.
Great video. Saved me a time of time. Great start to the new year!
Excellent, thorough video. Enabled me to replace the headlights on my son's Fit without major torments. I agree that OEM parts are not necessary. The $233 pair I got from Amazon fit perfectly and work perfectly. I installed all bolts except the blind upward facing bolt first. This seemed to position things so that the installation of the blind bolt was uneventful.
Thanks for making a detailed video!
Thanks for the links bought the leds!!
I read the title and immediately I knew you were a god
Damn this video saved lots of time! Thanks!!!
Thanks bud. Excellent work.
thanks for the video ..i just changed my headlights, but i took the bumper off and made it a lot easier. it just took a little more time
Great video used it today to install my new lights on my 09 fit sport
This was a very wonderful video. Amazing keep up the good work.
Clear and straight to the point and good music choice
Thank you for this video!!
Looking about doing this on mine. Doesn’t look that bad. Thanks for this.
will b changing mines this weekend....thanks man....jah blessins
great job!!!! I just got a GE8
I appreciate this bro 🏆
BOOM! GREAT VIDEO!
thanks for the video 👍
Very helpful video - thank you for sharing! I feel as if I can tackle this now on my own on my new (old) fit! Do have any issues with the lasfit LED lights? I want to replace my headlights but it seems like so many people have issues with them flickering or not working correctly. Thanks!
Very good video
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the awesome video! Did this easy job today. My only issue is that ,the side I changed originally, the low beam light wasn't working Now the low beams aren't working on both sides. Checked the fuses and they're good. Any tips on what I can do?
Muy bien explicado, muchas gracias!
Thank you. De nada
Your good work cleaning job.should put in swichback turn signal in it put 194 blub orange led
Thanks for the excellent vid! Really helped make it relatively easy - HATE the way cars are built these days - everything plastic clips into everything. Only problem I had was starting the blind vertical bolts on the bottom inside front of each assembly, wadda PITA.
You don’t need to cut down the black headlight gasket tight sealer. All you need to do is loosen the brackets from the led headlight itself and put the bracket first from the led headlight, put the black gasket 2nd and then the led light bulb 3rd and make sure you push it tightly and securely. That should do the trick. Nor need to cut the black gasket and make it worse.
Hey! I recently got 2010 Fit where Honda dealer replaced headlights with new ones before my purchase. I do see there is a gap of 5mm along side where bumper meets the bottom of headlight assembly. It is on both headlights. Will I be able to readjust/reseat the headlight by loosening the bolts as you show in the video?
That was Great! I wish I could see the difference between the old lights and the new lights. I want to do this to my 2011 Honda Fit Sport, but I will just have to get someone to do it for me.
Was no point showing difference because headlight bulbs was changed too. Main reason i changed headlamps because it was opened from the inside for a while and it was a lot of dirt and moisture inside out the window that was impossible to clean..
Your headlamps just can be buffed out if they're just foggy and you can replace bulbs to LED and I can guarantee you it will improve visibility tremendously. Damage on your headlamp probably just from the sun it that can be easily repaired. It will never going to look as good as brand new headlamp but definitely much better. Even Walmart resurface headlights for like $50
When I replaced my regular bulbs with LED bulbs, I lost the beam. It was bright, but more like a flood light. No beam. Not sure which is better. I need to change the entire assembly now, so thanks for showing how we can do it without removing the entire bumper. The auto shop charges over $300 for the labor, not including the assembly itself.
Hello, my original light is not LED. Can I still replace it by LED? Also I have a Honda Jazz from UK, I would like to replace it with EU standard, is there any complications?
GRACIAS P0R ESTE VIDE0!!!
ME FUE DE GRAN AYUDA!!!!
De nada, Me alegra que te guste
Car you share how to replace a fog light cover??
Подскажите может быть сталкивались, фары передние Honda Jazz 2009 и 2012 они взаимозаменяемые по размерам?
Не сталкивался в Америке Jazz нет. Если посмотреть по фотографии одно и тоже !
Hello ~ might you know if these same dis-assembly instructions apply to the 2013 Honda FIT? I see your comment re: "2nd generation which was produced since 2007-2014" so I'm hopefully.
Yes same car :)
Thanks
You welcome
I can't help but notice that it got dark in the process of not taking off the bumper to change the lights. Good video though, I like how you got the camera into all the places you needed to show.
It's the old video, but from what I remember I started late and with the video process it took me too longer to do the entire job, so I was running out of daytime light lol.
I refinished mine instead of new lights, and that was a terrible process due to the weird shape of these. Trying to clearcoat them was very hard. It took two refinishing kits and it turned out okay, but not great. If they need it again, I'll just get new lights.
I couldn't refinished mine because damage was from the inside. Well technical it was not a damage it was dirty and open it up to clean was way to much work.
Hi, im just have one question: do you disable the DRL lights with those LED bulbs???
With some LED bulbs, yes. You can pull the DRL fuse(marked as such in the fuse box diagram printed on the fuse box cover.
Hey by any chance you know where they sell the light bulb holders for the light bulb so it will stay still in the headlight
You just looking for those rubber covers ?
Screen Share yes
@@johnynava4668 they on ebay

Also just call your local dealer
Macanudo, huh ? Someone likes a good cigar!!!
Check my channel. you'll see some more good cigars
But Honda jazz front bumper very easy and quick to remove!!
No link to purchase tool used to release clips?
Do your want me to come to you to replace it too ?. Do you want to link to my socket wrench set too ?..Dang. U can't just google?. "Trim removel tool set" They sell them everywhere now.
Could you send the link to which lasfit leds you used?
I can't Lasfit don't sell on Amazon anymore
I have a lasfit question. Did you get an DRL error on your dash? Did you need a decoder? Did it go away? Thanks
I do have that error, but I run my headlamps ON constantly!! They was rewire long time ago by electrician and they automatically turns off when you turns off ignition
You can look into getting another bulbs that will not trigger that error.
Lasfit told me the running lights just wont work. I am getting a decoder just to see if it makes a difference. Thanks
Can you pls give info on how to find these lights on Amazon pls.
they actually out of stock now:
www.amazon.com/dp/B008UWAA3W/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_n5qfDbSZXGQKQ
Can you provide the link to the headlamps you bought on Amazon?
I bought it off of Amazon seller currently unavailable. And being unavailable, that's why I didn't provide link
Try rock auto website. I've gotten multiple headlamp assemblies there. will drill down by car # after you select make and model. besure select right or left.
is that c6 bulbs good??? how long does it work?
Lazfit great bulbs. I have them on all my cars and couple of other people cars and never had a problem ! They have much longer life span then your regular halogen bulbs and they done dimm over time
I don't see a part number and where to buy the clips he mentioned. Anybody now??
Do you know where description to the videos located?... u can find alot of useful information there...
Link to the clips in there too and been there for pass 2 years lol.
No link to headlights just because original seller do not sell them anymore of Amazon. But you can do quick search and find similar headlights gorgeous around same price.
how to replacr dim blub on headlight
What is dim bulb?
Hi...my plastic headlight lens appears to have some moisture or water stains on the inside of the lens. Can just the plastic lens be removed or do you have to replace the entire headlight assembly? I see some clips that appear to hold the lens in place. Can I just pry the clips up and remove (and clean) the lens only? I started to try that but didn't want to break something! Thanks!
It's way too much work I would just replace head lamp. Because that lens holds to the assembly body by special silicone glue and for you to take it apart you have to bake it in oven, It will soft that glue and will allow you to separate Lanes. then you can clean your lens put it back together but u have to reseal it with new glue... like it's really too much work. I would do something like this to original Mercedes or BMW headlights that cost $500 and more.
4:25 don't forget to put this guy back
@@IvanRossS I started to pry the lens off the housing but saw that it was sealed and probably would need the assembly completely removed to have any chance of doing this. Plus the lens may be too damaged to clean up. Found a pair of lamps for $183 but picture looks a bit different. Should these work?

You don’t need to take the whole plastic piece off
Is your headlight LED?
Yes lol. They LED
@@IvanRossS Did you disable Daylight Running Lights with the LED bulbs?
Its the same with left side headligh
Yes of course
@@IvanRossS ok thanks i got honda jazz 2009 from EU sweden. Hope it will be same like your video 😀
Thank you for the good video. I am surprised that it takes so much work to change a bulb in a Honda. I don't think I shall buy a Honda after watching this.
He's not just changing the bulb (which is easy ) he's changing the whole light unit.
You're right. I am too much focused on bulb change. I'll tell you it is not easy on Jazz compared to other cars I've had.
@@SA-zv4wr Really all cars are similar amounts of work if want to do a job like this - any modern car is going to require a similar amount of work.
@@danielslane4058 Unfortunately that may be the case. Thanks.
Huh the wiper fluid is on the driver's side. On mine it's on passenger's...
It is on passenger side I just flipped a video for editing purposes
Anyone out there about to follow this tutorial: you can just remove the rubber cover, undo the harness and take out the light. You don't need to take your car apart to change a light bulb. The bit about trimming the rubber cover was useful though.
Bumper holds to the headlamp on the bottom of it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U can't just pull out headlamp like that
@@IvanRossS Under the rubber cover there's a clip you can undo and the light bulb comes out, no problem. Just did it the other day.
They're changing the entire headlight assembly, he knows how to change the bulbs
@@amdstrollo3074 my comment was explicitly for people who just wanted to change the lightbulb and wound up on this video
There's a way to change bulbs without removing the headlights or anything
Yes ofcourse lol. Super easy u just remove rubber cover, remover harness then push on a clip that holds a bulb . Sure u can find bunch of videos out there "how to"
Too bad the lights are out of stock
There plenty of light hats out there you can find on different website too. For affordable price
With LED I also recommend "Fahren" it's LED light company that you can buy it on Amazon bulb size you need. I had them on my Rav4 headlights and fog lights for over 2 years no problems. Also installed them for two friends of mine and they never had a problem with them
Rock auto...Amazon was out here in Canada...$230 CAD for a set rockauto..Not bad!
i hate this damn car bc this is insanity to change something simple!! makes me miss my Toyota Camry wagon. i hope i can figure this out!
I find my yaris easier/smarter built then the fit...Both great cars though!
You should advise viewers that putting a LED bulb in a headlight designed for Halogen is illegal in most states, snd may result in a ticket, or failed inspection.
I'm sorry not in my State... every state have different rules and regulation this is your responsibility to follow them! not mine!
What a pain in the ass. Thus is far too much effort just to remove a headlight.
What a crappy design!
you are blinding every car in front of you with those cheap led bulbs that are not designed for a reflector
That's why it's very important to adjust them.... people install them and don't adjust them at all. Watch the end of the video where I'm talk about it. 12:43
@@IvanRossS reflector are only designed for halogen, led in a reflector all the beam gets dispersed there's no cutoff, ppl must be flashing at you constantly cause theyre being blinded lol, a proper projector retrofit is the best.
$18 per halogen lamp no tools 5 minute job.
I'm replacing a whole lamp Assembly not a freaking light bulb.....
How does this process require a 15 minute video 🤔. Maybe just give the information, skip the goofy intro and respect people's time🫤
Wow.... 15 min. Only 15 min. Well shit, I'm sorry I took whole 15 minutes of your life... how about next time you be the man, figure out yourself with out watching my 15 min video or take it to the shop and pay $ so you can save 15 min and your gentle hands... You shouldn't be wasting my time replying on this unless comments like that and need learn some respectful, and be appreciative for me putting this video together for your ass, that I spend way, way more then 15 min... Also I'm sorry that my goofy, 19 seconds, intro bothered you that much... your crying to a wrong person buddy. Call your mama first that.
Dont mind that skinny snowflake...great tutorial!@@IvanRossS
