No problem mate! Used to watch Aussie50 back in the day so I know you guys drive on the other side. Real shame about him, but I am glad this video helped you out!
Guess everyones 2007-2011 side maker lights are finally going out after 10 plus years. Toyotas are amazing, found restoration on my sister car. One time owner, might as well treat it right
I've seen cars where they burn out much sooner. These never burned out, I replaced them with LEDs. I still have the old bulbs, they still work. Great cars, treat them right and they'll treat you right. Oil changes religiously, that's the main thing. Most times, it won't need service for a LONG time.
I have two Camrys 2010 and 2011 and they both went out (marker lights) around the same time so I'm trying to replace them with led wish me luck I'm not too techy
😅 I'm so grateful to you! My warrant is due today and I thought it was an easy replacement 😂😂 far from it.....2011 Camry. I'm prepared to give it a go now.....I have 3 hrs before my appointment. ❤❤❤❤
What brand and model are those tires? I like the tread pattern on those, I’ve had a set of Amber led side marker bulbs for probably close to a year and my drivers side just blew on me the other day, so this video has helped me very much. I plan on changing these tomorrow since right now it’s midnight eastern standard time. Thanks again for the in depth how to video.
You're welcome. Those are Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires. I will put nothing BUT those tires on the cars. They ride great, quiet, comfortable and smooth. They also wear like iron, so they last a long time. And they grip the road well, remember that it doesn't matter how fast the car goes, it matters how fast it stops, and tires play a large part in that.
I just changed the front marker bulbs on my 2010 Camry le. It took two hours of my arm in my wheel wells, and a flathead screwdriver up through the side of the light fixture, to get these out. I suggest looking up how to remove the entire fixture to get to the lights instead. It seems a bit daunting, since you have to remove the front bumper cover, but after going through the wheel well, it honestly looks alot easier to do.
This was the first time I had changed these. It literally took as long as this video was, I didn't sit there and struggle for a half hour with the camera off. I'm no mechanic but of the many things I work on, I often have to work "blind" so it's all done by feel. You're a pro now, next job will only be an hour. Taking the bumper cover off is easy, any other car on the road can do that just rubbing on it. Putting it back on, that's another story. If I ever need to replace the entire fixture, and the bumper cover needs to be removed to do so, I will indeed make a video of it.
@@jaykay18 My first time too. My issue was the marker fixture is so close to other things i just couldnt get ahold of it enough to get the torque on it to spin it. A screwdriver coming down the top along the side of the entire fixture, pushing one way, and my finger up through the wheel well pushing the other way, was the only way i could get the passenger side one to move. Of course after having looked up videos to help, youtube is suggesting other camry videos and i watched one on removing the headlight fixture. After my struggle, it looks like alot less of a fight than what I had ended up doing In theory i shouldnt have to change these for a while, so im just trying to add my experience to the knowlege pool that helped me change them myself in the first place
@@ZeroProko After that many years, the bulbs can become stuck in the fixture. I have heard that same story from many people regardless of the bulb and location. A small enough pair of pliers may have helped in your case. I was recently in there again for the turn signal bulb, and was not looking forward to it, but it came out just fine. I was also in there to change out the fog lights (this model is equipped) with LED bulbs, which is also done through there. Each job was done blind. As with anything, the more practice you have, the better you become. Doing one of these bulbs now is literally just a few minutes' time.
Appreciate the info, man. Doesn't seem too bad. The fog light on the right side was a pain to get to lol but this doesn't seem bad. Question. What is the light with the 3 wires going to it that you mentioned? Thank you in advance.
Thanks. The light with the 3 wires is very simply the turn signal bulb. One wire is ground, one wire feeds the dimmer of the two filaments for parking lights, the other wire feeds the other filament to have the bulb flash (and glow brighter) when the turn signal is on.
@@jaykay18 Very informative, thank you. I've only replaced the main headlights and fog lights and didn't know which was the blinker and which were the high beams. Now I know! Definitely going to check out more of your vids. Thanks again 👍
@jaykay18 Thanks for getting back to me Jay. As you can see I've lagged these last 4 months on buying these bulbs lol. The other ones were so easy... seeing you make nice with the asphalt- It broke my will in the home stretch(prob had somethin to do with that being the only light that would've forced me to lay down my beer).😂 I noticed at 6:20, you noted the factory bulb, was originally amber. I believe it may have been clear from the outset, as I just happened to have the owner's manual out while I was watching this time around. It says that the front side markers are a 'clear' wedge-based bulb... (5W Type C - Page 400).
They don't. The reason this bulb is hard to get to is because of the style of the front of the car. This happened after they allowed automakers to make their own shape headlights, instead of the round and square sealed-beam headlights that were on every car back in the 1970s and into the 1980s. When that happened, headlights were all different shapes and sizes, and they could make them out of PLASTIC, which fades and yellows--I am sure you have seen that. The old sealed-beam headlights were glass and didn't fade or yellow. So don't blame the car manufacturers, blame the NHTSA.
Cars like Toyota are made in Japan i have a corolla in Australia and it is impossible to change the front parking light believe me and i have worked on many different corollas over 25 years @@jaykay18
God bless you. You don't know how many videos I've been through, telling me that I had to remove the bumper . Thank you for a great video.
You're welcome, now you know where to come first, next time.
Thanks for your help mate,here in Australia we have steering on other side but your video help me a lot . Thanks heaps

You're welcome.
thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! im about to pass my inspection thanks to you! 🎉
Great to hear, you're welcome!
That bulb is such a pain in the ass. It's hard to torque it with you hand at that weird angle, but I was able to get it. Thanks for this vid bro
You're welcome. Challenging, but this by far is the easiest way.

Que tipo de entrada son esos lesd o como los consigo
Every bulb on the car is 12 volts. This is a 194-type bulb. Short of actually installing it for you, I can't do anything more.
@@jaykay18muchas gracias por la información
Hi like this on both sides??
Yes.
What about the passenger side? I heard it’s even worse to get to it.
Exact same thing. Changing the fog light on the passenger side is worse because there is less room due to the windshield washer bottle.
Thank you for the video
I didnt know my car has that lights
But I will going to change it today
Part number 2825
Thyas the one I get from auto zone
You're welcome.
thx jk ，but how in 2023 camry❤
Send me one and I'll tell you.
why do Toyota make their cars so hard to work on?
They don't. The reason this bulb is hard to get to is because of the style of the front of the car. This happened after they allowed automakers to make their own shape headlights, instead of the round and square sealed-beam headlights that were on every car back in the 1970s and into the 1980s.
