    Thx so much for the tip on how to remove the lens. Genius! It worked for me. Without the tip, I would’ve been there for days and probably would’ve given up. A tip for other users: Use a hammer if the socket head doesn’t work, and tap hard. It really does require hard taps, but eventually it will let loose. Thanks again my friend!!

    Tapping the fixture out didn't work exactly for me but I did find another trick on the internet that helped. Get three 24 inch long strips of duct tape and stick half of the length to the outer tail light. You should end up covering a good portion of the surface of the light and have the three "tails" of duct hanging out. Once you've loosened the 10mm nuts and unplugged the electrical, pull and tug the duct tape backwards and the fixture will just pop out.

    Bruh the smashing the nut was a great idea but it ended up stripping the nut stuck onto the bolt and however the bolt is held into the housing must have broke because now the entire nut and bolt is spinning. Gonna try a zip tie to take it off like someone else in the comments later.

      Taking a bumper off for changing a light bulb. My goodness. I personally think Hyundai messed a big time designing this housing. I understand safety is required and you want to make sure the housing stay intact in its place. But this is far too stupid why not just install two more bolts making sure that stays together than this plastic crap.

    Another dead end for me.
    Even though both my brake lights have already been replaced, The housing is difficult to remove even using the trick in this video. Before I didn’t know that there’s actually a different kind of a clip that holds together the side housing. Despite trying everything I have another failure.
    I went to the mechanic who I have been to for same issue before even he doesn’t want to get his energy wasted trying to prop open this garbage.
    Next time which ever mechanic opens this housing for me, The first thing I’m going to do is break that side housing clip so I don’t need to go through this much of torture just to replace a bulb.

  • @DR-tv7te
    @DR-tv7te 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Best way to get this light assembly off without damaging anything is to remove the bolts and the rubber plug then take a long socket extension and place it in the hole against a flat spot make sure it's not against the light caps or anything you will damage. The hard clip holding it is under the narrow piece of the light if you wiggle the light lose and squirt a bunch of lubricant behind where the clip is it should release easier from the clip. Then cover the light in duct tape leaving some hanging at the back to grab and pull it backwards. When all this is done get 2 people one to hammer the extension from behind and the other to tug on the duct tape. It will take some force but it will pop out. I struggled with this thing for months until this worked for me. Good luck it's a huge pain really poor design.

    I have a 2018 Hyundai Accent and the dealership wanted to charge me $75 just to change the bulb in the centre brake light today. I haggled a little and he brought the price down a bit. He told me there’s some sort of panel so it isn’t an easy job. I’m not sure I’d have the patience to change the other brake bulbs, but at the same time I don’t want to be paying out all that money. I need to buy myself some tools for my car. It’s unbelievable what manufacturers will do to make sure you feel the need to have a professional do the job instead of being able to do it yourself.
