How to replace a 2007 Toyota Corolla headlight bulb

[@SilverNova24]

I have this exact same car and this was a perfect guide. This helped me change both bulbs out very quickly.

[@Turantula]

Just saved myself a trip to the service center over a headlight, thanks!

[@Teninthepit]

Great close-up shots.

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Thanks

[@jordynsmith6116]

I have an 08 Corolla. Only issue I had was having to remove my car battery 1st . Other than that, great guide !!

[@BeTheNow]

Thank you so much for taking the time to make and share this vid!

[@victoremeka9364]

Most detailed vid I found. Thank you

[@rosasbaby247]

Thank you, this was amazing! My same year and model, I would have taken the car somewhere until I saw this video! I would say it took some effort to get the bulb out of the socket, but this video made the process a breeze

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad to hear the video helped.

[@daphnedolan5858]

OMG. Your video was very, very, very helpful. I was able to replace the light by myself. Thanks for making the video. :)

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad to hear. Thanks for the compliment.

[@reynagarcia3953]

Thanks for the thorough video explanation. You are awesome and God Bless you !

[@sanjuakshu]

just changed it by refering your video, mine was stuck, struggled little bit but finally its done..!!

[@dino91001]

Thanks buddy, I’d like to think I can do some minor fixes like a boss (thanks to helpful vids like yours) 😎

[@julieyoung3350]

Wow that looks so easy! Can you see every things easily or did the camera view just make it look that easy?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

It was quite easy to see. Getting the camera to see what I could was tricky but I got a decent view I thought.

[@Fred7038]

I have a 2007 black Corolla s as well .Thanks

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad the video helped.

[@YouDontKnowMe210tx]

i purchased from walmart a XTRA VISION 9005 not a 9006 and I'm having a hard time putting it in...the two prongs wont insert in the socket....maybe I need to get a 9005 Sylvania?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Yes. Those numbers represent the various different styles of connection. Getting the right one is definitely the way to go.

[@YouDontKnowMe210tx]

@@TheMaintenanceMan i usually cross reference from rock auto and then purchase from another site or just pull the part out and snap a pic of the part number but for some reason it wont fit . maybe I need to force it in more? but if it doesn't fit smoothly then just try another bulb?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

If you think you have the correct footprint for the connection try giving it some pressure and rocking it slightly to massage the connection points wider till it goes.

[@colettefrye8677]

Thanks!!! easy peezy 😁 now I have to go change a bulb....

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Super glad I could help out.

[@jeansandmyshirt]

Bulbs are replaced in pairs. To keep same lumens and color

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Great tip! Thanks for that.

[@EligioRuizcantinflas43]

First of all, thank you so much for posting this useful maintenance video! I have a 2007 Toyota Corolla S and would like to know if its absolutely necessary to remove the car battery to change the driver's side bulb. Thank you in advance for your prompt response Mr. Maintenance Man.

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

It’s not necessary if your willing to work in tight spaces with patience. Otherwise removing the battery isn’t as big of a job as you might think.

[@citlalicanima6968]

Bless your heart 🫶🏼🫶🏼🥹thank you!!

[@ladysarah6548]

so calm and clear

[@monafinney7527]

Thanks easy!!! Now I do it myself!!

[@lalall4536]

That was so easy! Thanks so much 👍

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad to hear it helped.

[@alexflores7649]

Is 9006 for low or high beam? Thanks

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Low

[@richarddepalma9275]

Well filmed

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Thanks.

[@michaeld363]

Great video. I was about to take my Corolla to the mechanic. I wonder what he would have charged? I’m glad I came across your video. I easily did it myself. A little cramped for space on the drivers side but with a little patience the job got done. Thanks for posting.

[@penneymayluce6334]

Thank you

[@richardfj6004]

What kind of bulbs are needed?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

The bulb used in the video was a 9006 Sylvania XtraVision.

[@pjrose519]

Very easy. Thanks.

[@mikeyt51386]

Thanks for the video. Can someone please provide a description of what type of bulb is needed for the Corolla?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

What year is your Corolla?

[@mikeyt51386]

Its a 2007, but I found the information in the manual: bulb # 9005, 55W. Thanks

[@rhondacrites4298]

Thank you so much for your help.

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad to help. Have a great weekend Rhonda!

[@player_michaelous]

Thanks for the help man! Did this for the first time and it went smoothly.

[@yumpmammy4205]

Mines 07 but my car battery is in the way... for my drivers side headlight

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

That’s the case sometimes. Probably going to have to pull the battery to get in there. Be safe.

[@todayu]

Fantastic!

[@davidburchard5567]

Great video.

[@judecraig2875]

Thank you x

[@cozykate]

Thanks!

[@margaretniemeyer236]

great job, thanks

[@K-Lowe]

Me when the socket is burnt not the bulb 😂

[@Stevesmusic444]

I have the exact same car except it’s Ruby red and it has over 330,000 miles on it

[@Mrnormalsense]

My bulb is not fitting in the socket I have 9006 2010 Corolla 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

It’s ok, just return the wrong bulb, get the right one for your car. Don’t forget to reach out to me if you need more help along the way.

[@gregallen9065]

He should have shown the drivers side where you have to remove a couple things.

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Thanks for the feedback but I did not encounter removing anything myself.

[@danplusplus0]

@@TheMaintenanceMan I just did it on the drivers side and, while it was more obstructed than the passengers side, I did not have to remove anything to fit my (large) hands in and get just enough leverage. Thanks for the video!

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Glad to know the video helped. Thanks for the feedback.

[@DocFixit32]

I notice you changed the easy side.

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Good eye. It made for better camera angles. Hope the video helped. Have a great weekend.

[@erinoreilly4496]

Sweeeeeet!

[@jacqueline6420]

Wish I would have seen this video a week ago. I was charged 40.00 to do this. 😡

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Oh no. So sorry to hear that.

[@wojo9732]

Arabic or hebrew?

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

Hebrew.

[@crystaldavis1954]

Um.. Drivers side

[@TheMaintenanceMan]

You will need to remove the battery to access it but it’s the same process as the video.
