I show you how to change the headlight bulbs on the Saab 9-3 from 2003-2011. These instructions are for the HID Xenon bulbs, but very similar for the Halogen bulbs as well.

"Pardon my glove" would be an awesome thing to say after punching someone in their face
I have a 2004 Vector SS, do I have the same one as you (D2S) or do I have D1S?
Thanks man, its nice to have a video to follow so you dont accedetely break something
Thanks for taking the time.
Is it possible to use an igniter on a 2006 2.0T?
This video is not helpful in one way or another all the important parts in how easy or difficult it is to get stuff back on is edited out
Thanks man, you just made my weekend project so much easier.
Thanks man. You helped me out. Owe you a beer
like the details. especially where you show the bulb change on the driver's side…very detailed not like some other vids out there where its just dry run, its an actual change
Which is a compatible headlamp for SAAB 9.3 2.O T (2008) H4? , can I use Xenon Light 6000 or 8000k H4?
My 07 Saab 93 isn’t set up like that mine has has a shorter bulb and two prongs no ignition that I can see I’m confused
Fuck I’ve had such a hard time figuring out what bulb it is. First my car told me it’s the low beam so I bought an h7 bulb and that wasn’t it, then I read somewhere it’s a w5w or t10 or something?? So I bought a t10 and that’s not it now I find out it’s an expensive ass d2s bulb
I have a 2004 arc. I cannot get the bulb aligned properly to get the igniter on! Can you help me go in the right direction??
Great high quality video. Very clear and concise. Thank you!
I love this car. I had Audi before and its headlight replacement was like 2hours /pcs.
Thanks for the video, I think it is all I need to familiarize myself to change my bulbs. For anyone reading this though, you should change both Xenon bulbs at the same time for three reasons.
1. Xenon/HID bulbs change color temperature as they age because the metallic salts that create that color age at different rates (this is why a bulb that is about to burn out quickly changes from the cool-tone blue to orange then pink before finally kicking the bucket)
2. HID bulbs are rated for ~2500 hours as opposed to halogen bulb's 300 hours. This means that if one bulb burns out prematurely at 2000 hours, the other bulb has 0-500 hours of life left. At $150/bulb, it is worth it to change both bulbs compared to just changing the burnt out bulb like you do with halogens. The cost of a $30 halogen bulb every 300 hours is much higher than a $150 bulb every 2500 hours. People replace only one halogen at a time because if one halogen bulb burns out at 200 hours, the other bulb might have 100 hours left. Also if cost is you concern:
3. When a HID bulb is burning out and is unable to ignite the salts, the ballast has to work overtime to get them to ignite. This puts extra strain on the igniter (which is the expensive part of the system that you do not want to ever replace). Sometimes people will have to turn their lights off then back on a couple times to get it to ignite. This is hell on an igniter.
Great video not as bad as i thought thanks
My mechanic changed the bulb in under 2 mins without removing any other part .
