Thank you, just what I needed. :)

[NotToPreach]

I hated doing that on mine.  what a stupid way to make it

[editercora]

Excellent! Now to put it to practice. Thank you for the demo

[mrmhead]

Thanks! Always helps to know what to do before you do it!

Same for an '08 as well.

[laumakis3]

video looks good, thanks for the easy instructions. one question though...do you need to realign/aim the headlights after replacing them? thank you.

[lana201125]

thanks for the video, I knew it wouldn't be that hard but wanted to at least see what I would be doing before hand

[djsmitherman]

thank you for this vid - helped me a lot.

[MrKyletard]

[wagnermunarriz]

thanks for the video man i remember last time i had to take it with a mechanic but it did not look that hard but i was lost then i watched your video and i could change my own light thank you very much . By any chance can you make a video of how to change the tail light? is really hard too

[tjaaronm]

how much does a pair

of those cost?

[rjames02]

Thanks alot

[SIRDANTASTIC]

@805hoodrat- Yes, I believe it is the same. I don't think they changed it all. If they did I am sure it was a major change..knowing GM. Let me know if they did.

[805hoodrat]

will this work on a 2010?

[Finallystarted]

Thanks Big Guy, saved me farting around, worrying about snapping something, 10 minutes & I am done. WHA WHAT!!!! :)

[SIRDANTASTIC]

LOL! Very True "thetonster78"

[2012juarez]

@SIRDANTASTIC can you do a video with the rear lights?

[thetonster78]

dont forget to connect battery first then check to see if it comes on lol

[SIRDANTASTIC]

Once installed check to see of they need leveling. It be smart to mark on a wall where they old lights projected so adjusting them will be easier. Good luck. Thanks for the comments.

[josh1303]

After you put everything back in place. Does the headlights need to be leveled or is it good to go? I got burnt out lights and going to follow your video on replacing them right now.

[OneMinuteMagician]

Thanks Man, you've helped make this much easier!

[ezlife06]

thanks! that cylinder thing was a bitch, mine was stuck

[MedCodingGoddess]

Awesome work on this "How to...?"!! Very thorough.

[hellon45]

i just changed my bulbs and but new silvania bulbs in and they are not near a bright!! i turn my brights on and i cant see far at all in the country like i could with my stock ones.. did i do something wrong?.. the bulbs are more powerful than my stock ones, it doesnt make sence.

[SIRDANTASTIC]

@hellon45

Did you re-adjust your lamps after the install. I noticed most Cobalts headlights are not aimed right so try that and let me know..

[Peets104]

nice video man. just changed mine. that black plastic clip ring was corroded on mine, it was a bitch to get off! but other than that, not too bad.

[keithmontreuil86]

awesome, thanks for the video, this is exactly what i was looking for. changed my headlight in 2mins :) appreciate it.

[SIRDANTASTIC]

@keithmontreuil86

No problem, glad I could help!

[ansarily]

nice video thanks , i changed it my self in 5 minutes.

[SallyCrx]

This saved my life! I drive down in Mass and wouldn't have survived a day without a ticket. The info in the manual sucks!

Thanks so much!

Sally

[Thatshowido41]

Also, careful at 2:39 ! You just grazed the glass part of the bulb against the locking mechanism... just a little bit more force and you could have cracked it easily.

[SIRDANTASTIC]

Good Eye! Thank you very much!

[Thatshowido41]

Great video! Just what I was looking for. The manual isn't very descriptive and the internet article "how-to's" are just a replica of the manual. With your help I was able to replace this in no time. The only hard part was removing the headlight itself, takes a little elbow grease.

[SIRDANTASTIC]

When I first took out my headlight I thought I was going to bust it.. I then discovered the proper technique and I can change a bulb in a few mins..I am glad that I could help!

[SuperSexyOwen]

Thanks a bunch, I was just looking for this exact thing!

[SIRDANTASTIC]

Glad that I could help!

[SuperSexyOwen]

Just installed some 8000K HIDs for the car. Couldn't do it without this
