Headlight Bulb Replacement
Is there really no way to repace the drivers side bulb with out dropping the bumper?? Seriously?
Thanks

Consider replacing both sides while you have it all apart. If one has failed, the other may be not that far behind.jcorcione wrote:Is there really no way to repace the drivers side bulb with out dropping the bumper?? Seriously?

Bx, how's the nitrous setup treating you? I remember you talking about it on Insta.
Sorry for the thread Hijack but I will also be removing the bumper to get repainted

Yes, I did, as the other lights in the capsule work i.e. the marker and High Beams. Thank you for responding.

Make sure the bulb is in good condition and the filament wasn't broken from shipping.
I'd also check the bulb harness for heat damage. Check inside the plastic harness and check the wires. The wires are rather thin so they may not withstand much heat before damage.
Also, make sure to check both fuse boxes just in case. I haven't examined the fuses in the Kizashi yet, but most cars have a fuse box in the cabin and also in the engine bay.

Did not check the cabin. I will do that this evening in the warmth of my garageKuroNekko wrote:Make sure the bulb is in good condition and the filament wasn't broken from shipping.
