Check to see how much debris is built up in your radiator while you have the grill/ bumper pulled away. It's worth cleaning while you have it apart.

No bumper removal? BS

@RobS282 says:

lol its not a halogen bulb, doesnt matter if you touch it

@karlclintsman2950 says:

All that to put a shitty owm bulb in?

@davidhackworth5657 says:

Excellent video. Just replaced my headlight. Could not have done it without this video.

@iwanttobelieve9086 says:

Does this also apply to a 2009 DTS?

@genevagaskin7176 says:

Glad i found this❤ im going to do it myself on mine tomorrow. Thanks so much!

@TheSaluki1282 says:

Dude, you are hilarious.

@mgabbard says:

When you started taking the front end apart I was saying to myself – what a PITA just to change a bulb! But it was actually not that bad. Heading out to replace both of mine (I always replace in pairs). Thanks for the walkthrough!

@bikerbill505 says:

It ain’t no different than pulling the bumper off. You just didn’t pull the bumper all the way off. It’s just sitting on there now you save the person five seconds.

@anthonydelsanter5247 says:

How much more work is entailed in removing the whole bumper? I figure if I am in there replacing the headlight bulb, I might as well replace all of them.

@enriquecardenas402 says:

Very good tutorial, it totally helped me. I did it for about 20 minutes calmly. I would like to know if anyone knows if the LED night light strip has a fix.

@yusefburgess says:

Thanks for sharing!!

@Ccyawn123 says:

Does this also allow access to the fog lights?

@professorwernstrom says:

Just did this for my 2014 V. Great instructions and very clear photography! I was able to complete this in about 45 minutes – the right tools help make this a quick job! Thank you for this video!

@Tupac4sure95 says:

LED OR HALOGEN HOW DO DO YOU KNOW WHICH TO BUY AND DO THEY LOOK DIFFERENT ❓GREAT JOB❤️

@cadilacext says:

Is someone gonna tell him? Ok I will. U still took the dam bumper off u dumass

@foxvalleystingrays says:

Video title states NO BUMPER REMOVAL. But this is not true. THE video shows how to remove the bumper. Well maybe not fully remove it from the car but remove it enough so that you can pry it away enough to give you access to the headlight assembly. At this point you are just a few more plastic retaining clips away from actually removing the bumper from the car. There is no possible way to change the headlight bulbs on this car without dropping the bumper (front clip).

@floydjones494 says:

Waiting on my Headlamps to arrived going to replace the whole Unit and Thank you will be following your technique too the letter can't wait so again…. Thank you

@poopichalupi says:

Enjoyed the narration and kudos to you for the great job!

@caray55 says:

Very helpful, thanks.

@Cars4theLo48 says:

Is it the same process for the passenger side? Great video btw!

@CNC295 says:

Thank you. Dealership wanted $1200.00 to do this. Not counting the LED Bulb. That was an additional $200.00.

@shadowvfw4228 says:

"NO BUMPER REMOVAL" …. Sure looks like you removed the bumper. … LOL.

@OriginalSoul says:

Just did this repair today on the passenger side. Roughly a 30 minute job thanks to this video. Much appreciated!
