 everyone Shaber 1000 here today we're gonna be doing something really simple but some people still don't know how to do that so we're gonna help you do that save a little money we're gonna be replacing the headlight bulb the low beam and this 2011 Chevy Traverse so stick around and I'll show you what it involves really easy guys so this is what we're going to be putting in just a standard bulb just the basic headlight bulb first thing I did was turn we're replacing the left side low beam which is the driver side so I turned the wheels all the way to the right so I got a little room to work here and inside of here I don't know if you can see it or not lighting's not that great but right there's a Phillips Phillips head screw and then right up here is another one okay now some of these have a T20 Torx bit or headed screw if you don't have one of them you don't have to go buy one places like Auto Zone I know I think advanced still does they they have a tool loaner they'll loan you a tool what it is is you buy the tool and when you're done with it you take it back and they give your money back the reason why they got a charge is in case you don't bring it back the tools paid for but once you do they'll give your money back I'm just using one of these stub noses here because it's what I grabbed I wasn't sure how much room I had here and I'm just gonna go ahead and pull that screw out and the other one out you don't need to see that I'm gonna try to make this as quick as possible and we're gonna peel this back to get up inside here to the headlight so hang tight and I'll be back with you once I get these two screws out okay I got the screws out now we're just going to get our finger in here and we're gonna pull this piece of plastic back what I'm going to do is I got a coat hanger here and I'm just going to wire this coat hanger or wire this back here you can use a a bungee cord if you got one I don't have one so I'm just going to use this you may not need it but I'm trying to get to where you guys can see this a little better let me get this let me get this wired back so you guys can see it if I was doing it just without filming I would just read it reach up in there and do what I got to do so let me get this taken care of here okay guys so sorry my camera shut off the battery this batteries it's got the big battery and it's kind of loose so and when it shuts off I lose that clip whatever I was filming so when you take that the cover off that round cover that you're going to see me put back in and the bulb when you take that cover off you turn it an eighth of a turn toward you and it'll pull out the same way with the bulb just reach up in there grab that plug turn it an eighth of a turn toward you and it'll pop out so sorry I didn't get that on footage or on film but so I wanted to explain that to you now you're gonna see it kind of see it going back in you put it in turn an eighth of a turn the other direction and the same way with that cover so sorry I missed that clip so that clip it just plugs in and like I said there'll be two fingers turn this one handed again that you'll all you'll do is squeeze them two fingers together and it releases that clip off of them little ears there so those little ears now you got to be real careful excuse me when you put the new one in you don't want to touch this bulb if you touch this bulb it's going to burn out on you I've seen them burn out immediately looks like that one even has a tip kind of broke off of it compared to that one and you can use latex gloves but if you ain't careful when you touch them too much latex will actually cause these to burn out prematurely too so I just use one of these I just try my damn just not to touch them okay so just what I'm doing just inspecting the bulb right now making sure it's the same this is an H11 bulb so right there H11 which is my low beam okay so I'm gonna get this out of the package and I'm gonna reach up in there and then all you do is you plug that plug back in you can't mess it up there's only one way it'll go because of these ears okay and then you want to put it put it back in and turn it and eighth of turn like that you'll feel it so let me get that in here and then I'll show you once I get it put up in there so there it is it's back up in all I did was push it in turn it a quarter turn sorry I can't show you that but you'll feel it when it goes in and then when you turn it turn it clockwise turn it you know just just an eighth of turn did I say quarter but it's about an eighth of a turn now this thing this is our cap we'll make sure we got our seal on because water guys water will will cause these things to blow out fast they get hot and they will burn out fast okay so we're just gonna put this on here and like I said like I told you remember where this goes this actually goes on like that but if you look at these tabs here you got two short ones the short tab right there there's a short tab right here where my thumb is and there's one down at the bottom one down at the bottom is the long one so you just put this in there you'll feel it go in and just give it an eighth of a turn okay now I don't know if I can show you that I'll try and I don't think you're gonna see it let me get above you okay so I'm trying guys it can be fiddly but remember you can't mess it up there's only one way it'll go so you just keep turning it and you'll feel those those tabs lock in I've seen a lot guys take these out and leave them out and they don't they wonder why they keep replacing headlight bulbs okay I felt it now I'm just going to give it a turn just like that now it's up in there I want to show you that again cuz I don't think I had it right it's in there so like I said you just you're gonna feel it I know you guys can't see much but I'm sorry there you push it in you're not done yet now you turn it clockwise and it'll stop you can't ever do it and there you go that's all there is to that now I'm just gonna go ahead and take this off this is what I did don't want to scratch your wheels but this is coated it's alright just use a bungee cord or whatever so let me get this put back on self-explanatory just push it back up in there start your little screws there's where one goes there and then the other one is right there so let me get these screws in there it is it's on it's working this one's not on because that's your high beam so there you go now if you have I think it's oh my god I'm wanting to say 2007 2009 to 17 ish if you got a front end like this if your headlights are kind of shaped like that they're all pretty much the same other than the screws I know like I said I know one one screw head is a Torx 20 a T20 and another one is yeah is a Phillips so it's going to be one of those and it's fine just make sure everything's in there nice and secure and you're good to go oh I thought this one was out for a second I was like no okay there you go guys this this happens to be a 2011 by the way Chevy Traver so like I said you got this body style it's probably going to be pretty much the same now you're not going to be able to get up in here and change them there's too much stuff here so you got to do it that way real easy guys thanks for watching I appreciate it there you go monk now you got both both eyeballs again we'll see you in the next one shape ready myth man ledge I'm gone for now bye bye guys and take care
