HOW TO REMOVE 2011-14 KIA SORENTO HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES. The vehicle in the demonstration is a 2013 Kia Sorento removing the driver side headlight assembly. The next video will demonstrate how to repair the Low beam headlight connector properly and make a repair that will last. Very common for these vehicles to burn/melt the headlight connector damaging the headlight and connector as well. Hope this helps, leave any questions or comments below and don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE for future content as this is my VERY FIRST YOUTUBE VIDEO!!!

Update.: It only took this 59 yr old woman 20 to 30 mins from start to finish. I installed brand new assembly on both sides. My car looks brand new again. Great video!
Will it be the same for a 2017 sorento?
Thank you! Just replaced both on mine and it took maybe 30mins. So much cheaper than the dealership.
VERY USEFUL. I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THE MELTED SOCKETS AND HAVE HER ASSEMLY OUT MULTIBLE TIMES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. I WASN'T TAKING THE GRILL PART LOOSE AND IT WAS NOT EASY AT ALL. I AM GOING WITH CERAMIC SOCKETS THIS TIME.
Have the 2014 sorento. Can't find the 3rd bolt
Great video.
BTW…..
Do you know why the 2011 Sorento N.America version can't use the fog lights Kia has aftermarket.
I badly want fog lights and I can't find an easy way except use a dremel and blow a weekend.
Where is that stupid 10 mm at the bottom of the headlight? I took off the 2 10 mm on top. Where is the other one???? I'm pulling my hair off
Thanks for the useful vid man! Do you know what are the bulb sizes of the headlights and foglamps of this variant?
The Kia dealer wanted $545 each L&M, total $1,090. I bought online the 2 light assemblies and bulbs for total about $260. Installed myself. Saved $830. Thanx for the video.
Thank you so much for this video….life saver!
Thanks so much, worked like a charm! I can see again!
I can’t find the 3rd bolt on the passenger housing(couldn’t even find it on the driver side either).
Man. You saved my ass!!!! Did my lights in about an hour today.
Thanks. Awesome tutorial.
I used snap locks instead of soldering. I hope it works.
