thanks for the video replaced my bulb in about 30 minutes didn’t notice the pin on my ’03 dakota, entire headlight assembly came off after the screw and 3 bolts were removed. Long socket extension def helps!
You might be able to adjust the fenders of position the lights to tighten the gaps up a little bit.
I have aftermarket head lights on my 98 durango, and after they installed them there are some gaps between the body and the new lights. any idea on what i can do to make it flush on with the truck???
Just replaced my headlight in 20 minutes thanks to your video!
I have a 1998 dodge durango that I’m trying to put in a headlight bulb on driver side. I looked under the hood and it looks like i can replace it from there without taking off all of the front stuff. But how do I pull it out? I unplugged the thingy but can’t get the bulb out. Is it attached to something or will it just come out if pulled hard enough?
Great video! Thanks a lot!
It took me 2 hours to get the old headlights out and the new ones in. On the drivers side the third bottom bolt on the right is below the bumper, and is unreachable without taking it off. The other side you can just barely reach it by lifting up the light. I had to only bolt the right headlight down with 2 bolts. 1999 Sport
Thank you! 03 Dakota.
on the durango theres 7 or 8 bolts located way behind the assembly i want to say 6 inches

AWESOME VIDEO! <----- for a guy who knows a lot of skills and trades, but doesn't know a THING about CARS, this video helped me to replace my lights in about 15 minutes (after watching your entire video) and saved some cash. Thanks A1 Auto!
You should be able to carefully remove it. If it’s a clip that helps to secure the post on the headlight, you might be able to remove the new one and leave the old one in it’s place to secure the light.
Thanks…GREAT VIDEO…saved me lots of time…much appreciated– 2002 Dakota
We carry new headlight for the Dodge Dakota and Durango on our website 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
The clip on mine doesn’t want to pop out. It flexes and a piece broke off but it never came off. Any suggestions?
Thank you. It was so easy my girlfriend was able to do it.
Great video! Thanks!!
What exactly are the headlight snap in part at the top right of it called. My headlights don’t just snap in with it, so I’m thinking about replacing them but can’t find them online.
WOW !!!! AWESOME VIDEO!!! 5 minutes each side..bang bang BANG!! Thanks..you guys rock, I apperciate this, ’cause I replaced one headlight last year, and it took 3 hours..fighting with the battery, the housing, etc, etc… now I know how to do it quick and easy..what can I say, thanks again!!!

i wish mine looked as good as the ones he took off….great video
i wish mine looked as good as the ones he took off
Thanks, big time saver, 2002 Dodge Dakota
Very detailed video. THANK YOU.
I think I did it in a little under 40 min. Without the video it would have been an all day thing, ending with me buying two bulbs because I threw the first one at the garage. Thanks… For my family… Thanks. lol
Thank you for tuning in. Have a great day!
Thanks for the tips on how to remove I had Headlight. I wasn’t sure which tools to use to remove the Headlights. You answer my question within the first few minutes of this video. Now I can replace my turn signal light. On a 2000 Dodge Durango.
Thank you for visiting our auto repair channel on YouTube. 1aauto.com
You would need to adjust them once they are installed on your truck.
Do the lights need to be adjusted after installing or are they already aimed correctly?
Replaced passenger headlight, 2002 Durango, in approx. 40 minutes, thanks to your video! That doesn’t include the trip to the store for the 10mm socket (thank you for saying the size needed), but it does include 2 trips back to the computer when I needed extra help! (One was to use a flat-head screwdriver to pry the corner pin free.) Removing the top screw with a T20 screwdriver made it much easier to remove the turn signal assembly. Thank you very much!
Excellent video. I replaced both of my headlight/tail light assemblies with new ones. Whole process took about 40 minutes thanks to the excellent instructions in the video.l
Thanks for posting this video!! I just changed out the bulbs in my 2002 Dakota and this video made it very easy to do.
It should be a 9007 size bulb. If you take the bulb out of the headlight it should also have a number on it. Hope this helps you out.
What is the high beam bulb size for a 2001 dakota?? please help
I literally just did this to my 2002 dodge dakota. Same exact setup, very easy to do. The first 2 mins of your explanation on how to get it off showed me everything I needed. Thanks.
We haven’t tried it here, but It could be different.
You should be able to purchase them from the dealer. Many times they can look them up on the computer and match them for you.
Where can i buy new 10mm bolts that hold the assemble? I tried everywhere.
does anybudy knows if a 98 durango`s fender fits on a 98 dakota sport?
Excellent video, much appreciated! The “diagram” in the owners manual is worthless! Thanks much! BTW, I didn’t have a T10 Torx driver but borrowed one from Action Auto Parts, where I bought the bulb.
Excellent video, was not able to do it 3 months ago on the drivers side and had to take it in to the shop. The passenger bulb went this week and after watching your video I was able to do it in 20 minutes. Thanks for the OUTSTANDING HELP.
This video was so incredibly helpful. !!! I have a 2001 dodge durango RT and never knew how easy it was to get at the parking lights to change the bulb. One little screw! All be it a torque screw, but so simple….Thanks a bunch!
Thank you for checking out our videos.
thx so much u rock!
That was awesome >>> Thank you . All I needed to do was to change the bulb and that made it so so easy.
I went to get an oil change at Jiffy Lube a couple of weeks ago, and they noticed my side parking lights were out. They said they would replace them, installed for 5 bucks each, but after 15 minutes, they still could not figure out how to get the lights out. They said I would need to go to the body shop, yeah, right, at what those guys charge?? So to do it myself, I had no clue, until I found your video. I’ll be getting some new bulbs this weekend thanks to this tutorial. It’s great. Thanks.
your a lifesaver dude!
Very helpful vid. The lights all work perfectly, and you just saved me fifty bucks.
