If you need to change a headlight bulb on your Kizashi and you have normal sized hands, you're not triple jointed and dropping the bumper without instructions intimidates you...don't worry about it. It's easy, fast, and I made a video of myself doing it. Hope you find it helpful.




Where is this video? YouTube does not have it up again

The actual installation of the bulbs are the same as all of the videos posted, except they are done with the headlight assembly still in place.

Hope this helps!

Cheers :D

A ratchet doesn’t have enough movement to remove that bottom bolt. I’m here fighting to get this in and I have a short ratchet. I now have to look for a pipe to fit ratchet handle in for leverage. I think moving the air box to get to that bolt will be better.
