I just watched your video. I love how you put so much detail into every step. I looked at several videos to replace a bulb and by far yours is the easiest to understand. It gives me the confidence to replace the bulb myself and save a ton of money.

[@theoriginalhippychic]

Absolutely LOVE how detailed this video is for those of us that are clueless. Thank you! You make this look so easy! I'm ready!

[@VirarAutomotive]

Thank you for your comment. I tried my best. Glad you found the video helpful!😊

[@erickporter5307]

Clear step by step instruction. I followed the procedure and made the bulb replacement with no difficulty. How to unlatch the spring was the biggest help. Thanks.

[@VirarAutomotive]

Glad to hear that. Thank you :)

what about the small lamp there ? i dont know what is it called but it is the first one lights up when i switch the Lighting control, maybe parking light but the white one , thanks

[@VirarAutomotive]

It's the front parking light. Here is the video for it. It's 1 bulb, that does two functions. It works as the parking light and also as the turn signal. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJWtpYePaqyGrqc

[@aec618]

Great video in general, good camera and explanations--but the video title says 2011-2014 Sonata. I have a 2011 Sonata Hybrid and my lights are different. Both high and low beams are removed by twisting the bulb 1/4 turn and removing. There are no retaining clips. The low beam H11 has a plastic base on the bulb that mates with a wiring connector from the car; the high beam H7 doesn't have a plastic base, but it still gets removed a similar way, by twisting the wiring connector and bulb 1/4 turn to get it out of the housing, then pulling the bulb strait off of the connector.

[@HarpreetSingh-qg1is]

Hi brother your videos are so amazing. I need to change parking light bulbs do you have a video?

[@VirarAutomotive]

Thank you 😊. All the videos for the 2011-2014 Sonata are here: kzbin.info/aero/PLFtKj3oFrQPOG5ZBkx-knMZkKvHaUkhg6

[@HarpreetSingh-qg1is]

Hi brother I watched all the videos but that one is not covered. I am talking about small bulbs in the high beam compartment which is sometimes called a parking light, position light or side light.

[@i_adnano7]

I almost thought I keep back in the video, you said the exact same thing for the low & high beam bulbs when describing the circular shape lmaoo , thanks tho

[@VirarAutomotive]

Yeah I reused a few seconds of the video clip. Haha. Glad to hear that you found the video helpful.

[@PianoLandscapes4film]

Thanks for the detail. I know I can do this.

[@VirarAutomotive]

Yes you can!

[@advemail]

Which model number of Auxito H7 bulb do you recommend to work for both DRL and High beams which do not cause flickering/error code on the dashboard of Sonata Hybrid 2014? I prefer the one that fits in with the back cover without modification. Will the brightness be the same as using high beams when using DRLs? Thank you for your video.

[@VirarAutomotive]

auxito.com/collections/h7-led-forward-lighting-bulbs/products/h7-led-bulbs-16000lm-6500k-xenon-white-compact-design-halogen-replacement I used these ones when I did the auxito bulb review video. Unfortunately I couldn't find one that could fit without me having to take the back cover off. These bulbs worked well for the high beam/DRL on the 2011 Sonata without any flickering or dashboard lights or codes.

[@i_adnano7]

What about the small bulbs? The parking lights?

[@VirarAutomotive]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJWtpYePaqyGrqc The turn signal bulb has 2 functions. Parking light and turn signal light

[@thomaskowald9138]

I have 2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The high beams are H7 and work like shown in the video. The low beams are H11. Replacing H11's is slightly different. The cap is similar but tough to remove. 1/4 turn left then it pulls out (I needed to use pliers to pull it.) Bulb doesn't have clip but instead is another 1/4 turn. When putting bulb in recommend plugging bulb in FIRST then inserting into socket. I did not and bulb slipped from fingers and got lost "some where" in the housing. I couldn't get it out. I just gave up, made sure to first plug in a second new bulb, then squeezed it into socket with 1/4 twist to lock it. It's my ex-wife's car. She may hear a rattle sometime in the future from the headlight. I'm going to play dumb. Light still works. Good bye $25+ bulb but short of disassembling the car it wasn't coming out.

[@VirarAutomotive]

Yes, the Sonata Hybrid has a different headlight bulb setup. Thank you for sharing!

[@ibdam1]

Great detailed explanation. Thank you.

[@alextogo8367]

Awesome video. Love the camera work.

[@VirarAutomotive]

Thank you very much!

[@SunnyUBC]

Great video, is it similar on a mazda?

[@VirarAutomotive]

It is broadly similar in all cars, but the main point is that it is different for different cars. It's all in the details where it matters. After I complete the Sonata videos, next car in line to complete videos on would be the Mazda 3.

[@jasonmonteverde9529]

Will the process be different on a 2012 sonata hybrid?

[@jasonmonteverde9529]

With H11 bulbs

[@VirarAutomotive]

Probably yes.but should be very similar. The housing for the Hybrid looks different than the regular one. I haven't worked on a Hybrid before so couldn't say for sure. But worth a try.

It can be replaced from under the front bumper. Here is the video for it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bouxiXV6Z7aJrJY

Video is very helpful but my connector seems like it’s stuck it won’t come out.

Sometimes its stuck. It will come out eventually. Good luck! Try wiggling it and hopefully that helps.

FOUR of these H7 bulbs, NOT H7 and H11. Wonder why the internets throw in the H11.

[@VirarAutomotive]

That's correct. Its all H7 Bulbs. High beam and Low Beam

[@speedknight1378]

I broke the clip and it fell

[@delorishunter7713]

This is not correct for all 2014 sonata’s, it was a totally different bulb.😊

[@VirarAutomotive]

You probably have the Hybrid version? They did have different bulbs.

[@hermesotaku201]

Most of this is the same video 4 times.

[@VirarAutomotive]

Yeah, but with minor differences for high beam and low beam and for the left side vs right side. Just trying to show all the details I can and that it is equally easy to change both the left and right side bulbs.

[@maddog57ful]

Can't work with Gloves that thick.

[@VirarAutomotive]

You can just work with your hands, but just be sure to not touch the bulb's glass surface with your bare hands. Oil on the skin surface will get on the bulb and degrade the bulb's lifespan
