My car so old I was able to put bulb in without taken lens out! Awesome 👍 but then I realized the passenger side was out!Darn but same thing.10 min for both combined Done.Thankyou.
So happy to see it’s a quick fix, despite the difficulty of taking it out and putting it back. I’ve never chanced a turn signal, so I didn’t know what to expect. Thanks for uploading this.
I like to leave tip when you're installing a turn signal light or headlight make sure you don't touch the bulb with your bare hands because oils on your hands may shorten the life of the bulb your installing in your vehicle. you can use rubber gloves or paper towel to install the bulb you need to replace.
Very well done & Thank you.... When I have it out I always replace all the bulbs on both sides of the car (I add a tiny bit of anti seize to any metal screws/bolts, just a little) Also, when doing this I learned the differences between 922 & 921 | 3057 & 3157 Thanks again!
If you are talking about the dark panel in the middle held down by black fasteners, the nearest fastener(s) should be removed to allow room to get to the inner bolt and get the headlamp out. Any kind of prying tool should be able to get under the button in the center of the fastener(s).
Hi there. I followed your tutorial. Thanks for posting it. One concern-- when I was placing the headlight back in its original spot, the small metal piece that's used to hold the second bolt in place fell inside the vehicle, and I've been unable to retrieve it. Do you know what specific piece I'm missing so I can replace it?
Hello, I really hope you can get that piece back! I researched this for awhile and I think that small metal piece is part of the black headlight bracket behind the headlight assembly. That bracket looks like this: www.amazon.com/Replacement-Chevrolet-Passenger-Headlight-GM2509106/dp/B004GD1J6G I wonder if you would get that metal piece back if you manage to get that bracket off?
WoW...I've got to do this now, thanks for the video. I'll let you know how hard/ez it was. UPDATE...Changing mine out was very ez, after taking the 2 bolts out I was able to pull the headlight out without any issues...like less than 30secs. THANKS!!!
Thank you for letting me know how it went! Glad this helped, and I'm really glad to know that pulling out the headlight was not the struggle for you that it was for me!
No especially when taking out the headlamp assembly. I'd rather do either taillight or the high-mount stop. I like the simplicity of these lights though and not having to deal with any LEDs
TY- 66 yo women just fixed what I’ve been waiting for someone to fix for 6 months 😂. Never underestimate yourself‼️
I appreciate you sharing how long it took to get it out. Now I know not to get frustrated after 30 seconds of trying.
I appreciate that you were showing everything as well as talking about the difficulty of removing the fixture. Thanks to you I was prepared for this.

Just wanted to say Thank You for making this video - I couldn’t have done it without your help.
Right on, glad I could help!
Ya I remeber getting to the back of the cassing being a huge pain from when I changed the headlight
Thanks ,☺️ Now I can do it all by my self.
You can do it! I hope it works out✅ I still laugh at myself over dropping that one bulb

RT Spacer yea I did actually it was to bad not at all
Thanks for this!
thanks
Thanks! I have the same car as you so this was perfect.
Know can u replace that shocket that u just put in the light in
One thing that helps with getting the headlamp out is a pair of those safety gloves that adhere to things.
Thanks for this. I'll be doing this as soon as the weather permits. I have no doubt I'll copy your bloopers as closely as I follow your instructions.
David Herbst Thank you 👋🏽 No way I was leaving out all those bloopers, I found them hilarious!
My cobalt has a cover/shield in the middle front. It covers the inner bolt. Looks like push button type pins. Do they just pop up? Is there a trick?

You're welcome! Glad this video helped you ✅
My leftside blinker doesnt work fully when the headlights are on

Also forgot to say dont touch the new bulb that one prob didn't last very long and you don't need to take the light out... you can turn and unlock it.
Thanks! GM doesn't make it easy, do they?

Easier time? Nope. But this helped allot. Thanks
Thanks! Just better not touch the bulb 💡 with our fingers. 😊
