Kia Picanto headlight bulb

[@deadfamous8503]

Just changed my bulb and saved myself £30 thank you so much

[@mangoswiss]

For those struggling to get the 'clicks' have faith and pull harder. Our's is a 2005 model and once you have removed the screws there's just two plastic U shaped clips at the bottom and back of the lights. That's what you're pulling on so just pull until they come out. Try pulling at ~45deg angle up to your chest. Thanks, Steen. This worked for me. If it wasn't for your video I would have given up and assumed there was a bolt I missed.

[@Papias_GR]

Same here. I thought there was a bolt I missed, almost gave up. but then tried harder and I heard the click noise. It seems there is a rubber slot down and you must pull it to slide off.

[@myvideosetc.8271]

Short video with all the needed information, thanks, only with the first part was enough.

[@nodogsaloud]

Cheers bud, The manual told you nothing but gibberish when i rang the dealer they just kept telling me to take to the nearest garage Great vid!

[@lefterisstafilarakis947]

It's 2021 and your video is still useful!

[@Smokinhagen]

Great video. I have a 2008 and it was almost the same, so this video is usefull for that model as well. I had problems with snapping it out as everyone else have had, but it's just a matter of pulling it harder. At some point when you pull, you'll think: "Oh shit. If I pull any harder I'll break it" Just pull harder. It will pop out before breaking.

[@carleveson7518]

Dropped the 2 bolts around wheel arch and 1 next to headlights to enable a smoother take out, 10 min in total for the side light bulb change. B4 seeing this i had no idea. Cheers 👍 £40+ saving i think .

[@stephenhall3515]

Thank you VERY much for this. It was a side/parking light which had failed in mine but I replaced the headlight one as well because I had a pack of bulbs so it was a precautionary measure. Your method also allows checking of the unit seals and -- apart from the heave you mention -- it was a nice clean job and far less painful than on some cars.

[@miloremudaro8680]

Excellent tip. Thanks.

[@jontyone]

Side light bulb on Picanto went after 8-years so I checked here and found this video which saved me almost £14 at a well known car/bike shop in the UK, and that was just for fitting them. I did exactly as shown in the video, and it does take a bit of a heave but have faith and it will eventually pop; either that or your back. Putting it back together was a bit trickier but once the bolts were tight I pushed it into place and then fully tightened up....job done! 15-mins tops.

[@ewensoyez2363]

Thanks for you help ....with your vidéo its easy to change light or glass

[@teunissenstefan]

Exactly the video I needed. I've changed headlight bulbs before, but never on a Kia Picanto 2005.

[@jakubfrey807]

Neat! Previously I changed the lightbulbs without removing the headlight and it was painful... Thank you very much Mr. Jeberg! BTW, People, you may want to check out the video about the "strap trick", that makes taking the headlight out easier, too. Helped me a lot.

[@Goulmy86]

The first 50 seconds was all I needed! Thank you!

[@ldmuttley101]

Thank you for sharing this video. Saved me alot of money, last time it cost me nearly £40.00 to get a garage to change the bulb. This time it only cost £8.99 for the bulb a sore finger.

[@northlake72]

Dear Steen, I try it again but the temperature outside was higher (+7 C) and now no problem at all. Many thanks and happy new year!!! Brgds, Remco Noordermeer from Holland.

[@TheGnix1979]

Just had to replace the spotlight bulb, this video was extremely helpful.. Many thanks 😊

[@SCArtandGrafts]

Just what i was looking for. Thanks Sir!

[@dongrunbaum1005]

Many thanks for this. Without it I don't think I would have got the unit out.

[@bastijay4561]

Thx, for the Tutorial, easy to understand. Good work. 👍

[@jeroen9430]

thanks for the video. headlight unit is in there very tight, it felt like i was gonna pull off the entire front of that car. but i had confidence in your video and it worked out great!

[@crownjulesb]

Thanks for the extremely useful explanation on how to remove the casing! We were scratching our heads for a while there.

[@mouloud2110]

Thank you Sir 🙏

[@jacktingzon2378]

Thank you sir! Good thing i saw your video it might take me forever if not.

[@Johnny-cv8oe]

Nice video, thanks. I was going to remove the battery and relay box to get to it. You have saved me a lot of work!! Many thanks and peace to you.

[@deksie7485]

Thanks alot! I did this today with the help of your video. Lifting it out was indeed tricky!

[@mouki98]

Thank you for the clear instructions. Was surprisingly easy to do. It only cost me a few minutes and 3 euro for the lightbulb.

[@sylexleola]

You saved me. Thanks

[@EduardoValdivia-c9s]

Gracias por tremendo vídeo

[@Clarkkentuk6]

Brilliant, cheers for this video, it took some doing, but managed to get the headlamp unit out 😊

[@sailej45]

Con tus explicaciones ha sido muy fácil. Muchas Gracias.

[@grahamhamilton6378]

Brilliant 4 garages wanted to take the front of the car off.. This guy is good. Try it, it works Graham from Glastonbury UK.

[@eriklamens7289]

Great help man, thx!!! At Belgian rates saved me 2x40€ :-) I had to pull the inner side first and then the outer side, fingers under it did not work, maybe I'm not strong enough :)

[@gamerszvidx]

What do you mean pull the inner side first, I'm having the same issue, feels completely stuck

[@eriklamens7289]

@@gamerszvidx It's sometime ago now, but it worked best for me when I pulled the side closest to the middle of the car first and then the side closest to the side of the car. So standing in front & looking at the front of the car: for the right light the left side, and for the left light the right side. It felt like it was going to break but the clip is just very strong.

[@maxmar6591]

Grazie al tuo video ho potuto sostituire le lampadina! :-)

[@76Sulaco]

Brilliant, thanks for the help. I was reaching frustration point... James UK.

[@CheapAssHack]

Thanks so much from Italy! Very informative and to the point. I was able to save enough for another couple of slices of parmigiano. :-) Thanks again!!!

[@ArnoldKruidhof]

Your video helped me, thank you very much.

[@3DKOULOS]

Thank you thank you sir!!!!! Best greetings from Greece ;)

[@NerdNordic]

Thank's worked like a charm, even easier on the 2009 model! :)

[@DU5TR3AVER]

Thanks guy. Nice work, this video helped me a lot.

[@gene_Code]

Ok. No way for me to pry it out with my finger, so I tried the strap method it works. I used my old belt to pull headlamp out. It works👍

[@skyblue3332]

Thanks for the video

[@selemanecu]

thanks it helped me! Worked with my 2007!

[@AndreasGruber1]

Thanks a lot! It worked like a charm.

[@Eliasson2007]

Side godt Steen. Din video er stadig aktuel. 200.000 kig er godt gået :-)

[@MartinEgholm]

DK: Genialt! Havde skruerne af engang tidligere, men indtil jeg så dig virkelig løfte til, troede jeg ikke på det :) EN: Thanks! It worked like a charm!

[@gizmo100490]

Tusind tak for hjælpen!

[@michaellfh]

Thanks Steen for video, and all the comments that followed. If not for you guys, I would never have dared to do what I did. My fingers couldn't take it anymore. So I used two open spanners to PRY it out!

[@MrSantocha]

thank you ! great savings !

[@iformaddox3652]

Steen you're a gem.Thank you.

[@katarzynaby4132]

Thanks a lot!

[@ETD81]

Many thanks for this video, I thought I had missed a bolt somewhere. You really need to yank on it to get it to unclip, going at it too weakly will only hurt the tips of your fingers in the long run

[@ardscherpenisse1079]

Very usefull thanks

[@AliBaba-ko2qj]

Gracias por tu ayuda

[@collgateh]

Thank you very much

[@uzzal192002]

HI, Thank you so much for the nice useful video. Could you upload some more DIY videos like how to fit DRL and front fog lights in picanto?

[@sailej45]

Mañana lo intento, muchas gracias por el vídeo.

[@sunilwhynot4846]

[@SteenJeberg]

Great and enjoy. Merry Christmas....

trading a bulb for diabetes

[@PixelPatGaming]

Hey folks I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to tools. Could someone point out what tool was used to remove the bolts on the light fitting itself?

[@petermedvec]

thanks, hepfull!!!!

[@midnightskye9743]

hi do u know how the grill comes off ive had screwdriver behind it but will snap before it comes off any idea

[@reuzeneus]

Thanks a lot

[@zigpah]

What type are the bulbs? Are they h4? I've got an 06 picanto and want to get a hid kit for it. :/

[@agnostic8507]

All I needed are the 12 seconds from 0:31. Unbelievable! How could they make this so difficult? Many women would break their fingernails let alone not having the strength to push the light upwards. Oh - now I understand: It is meant to create an opportunity to flirt.

[@lennymina4915]

thx tof tip

[@intyash]

Hello sir both the side lights don't work on my Kia picanto do the bulbs Need replacing or do I have to do other checks please reply and give me advice

[@jeroen9430]

check the fuse first, because most of the time the two headlights dont break at the same time.

[@malisiod]

Tak for info

[@diinam9958]

I'm really bad with tools. What kind of wrench are you using in the video?

[@krishnadhawtal2229]

Hallo ik heb ook een kia picanto van 2007 maar ik krijg rechtskoplamp niet los geklikt

[@Hemanzn1]

thank you

[@michaellfh]

Oh, be careful of the bumper paintwork when prying out the headlight assembly. Changed both main bulbs, and the two tiny bulbs as well. Grand total - SGD10.60!

[@CoNeTexX]

Danke!

[@Krissbacky]

the same at kia picanto 09r ?

[@northlake72]

Dear Steen, I gave all the power I had in me but no clicks. Can you give me any further advice? Thanks in advance. Brgds, Remco Noordermeer

[@SteenJeberg]

Lift it up and against your self. Do exactly as shown in the video, and it does take a bit of a muscle work but have faith and it will eventually pop up.

[@matthe1972]

Even with brute force it doesnt come off
