If you don't mind me saying. I would not upgrade your headlights with LED replacements. LEDs do not throw light as far as Halogens do. The wave length is much shorter. They are very bright to look at up close but at any distance or through fog, the light is quickly extinguished. To answer your question. It will depend on if the headlights have Halogen or HID. If you have a GT the bulbs you purchased will not fit or replace HID but if it has halogens, the part number is H11. If you have a SE model, you will be looking for a 9005. Please write back and specify which model Elantra you have. Do you have a GT or SE? Which model bulbs did you buy? Let me know what you think or if you have any other questions.

SOURCE: replace the headlight bulb

Remove the plastic access panel by pressing down on the tab at the top of the penel and pulling the top of the panel towards the engine and off. Needle nose pliers may help with the next steps to remove the spring clips. There are 2 bulbs, the top large bulb is the low beam. To remove it, first remove the socket attached to it, then press the top of the metal spring clip towards the front of the car and towards the passenger side (look closely at the clip to see the latch holding it. The clip then swings back towards the engine. Remove the old bulb, install the new bulb, replace the spring clip, re-connect the socket. (Don't touch the bulb, if you do clean it off with a lint free cloth and alcohol). To replace the lower bulb (parking light), remove the socket, then release the lower end of the spring clip, look closely and you'll see the latch holding it. You have to press it towards the front of the car and swing it towards the passenger side. It will swing up and release the bulb. Replace with new bulb, replace spring clip, connect socket. Don't forget to replace the plastic cover panel by inserting the bottom tabs into the sockets and snapping it closed at the top by pressing it towards the front of the car.

SOURCE: bulbs keep burning out

When you replace headlights in today's cars, DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS OF THE BULB!. Handle the bulb only with the packing material the bulb ships in, or with a clean dry cloth.The oils in your skin will cause premature failure of the bulb.

Also, check the sockets (car side) carefully to make sure they are not burned.

SOURCE: How do I change the headlight bulb in a Hyundai

I changed a Right Front low beam bulb this morning on a 2007 Entourage. You have to remove the two bolts on top, use a 10mm socket, then you wiggle side to side and pull the entire headlight assembly forward. The headlight gets caught a little behind the grill so you have to pull sideways a little then forward with a little force. I heard some scraping plastic but nothing broke. Then you remove the black round cap in the back and change the bulb.

2006 Nissan Altima left turn signal blinks rapidly only when the headlights are on. Otherwise works correctly

Have you installed any LED light bulbs? Sometimes the low current draw of these bulbs makes the controller think a bulb is out, which in older cars would cause the turn signal to blink rapidly. You may try replacing any LED bulb with a standard bulb.
In your car, the speed is controlled by the BCM. So it could be that your BCM is faulty.

Vw passat B6 sidelights not working but bulbs ok

There could be a few reasons why the LED bulbs and the standard bulbs are not functioning properly in your Passat B6 estate:
  1. The LED bulbs you installed may be incompatible with the car's electrical system. Make sure you are using LED bulbs that are specifically designed for use in your car and that they are compatible with the car's electrical system.
  2. There may be an issue with the car's wiring or electrical system. Check the wiring to the headlights to make sure there are no loose connections or damaged wires.
  3. The car's fuse for the headlights may be blown. Check the fuse and replace it if necessary.
  4. The car's headlight switch may be faulty. Try replacing the switch to see if that fixes the problem.

Recently replaced the bulb in my 2006 silverado headlight now im am getting signaled by on coming traffic even if my low beams are on

probably you were not succesfull on fitting bulb into its place correctly. once headlights designed with really low focal point tolerances even you have a bit of wrong orientation of bulb it wont illuminate ground correctly. light rays scatters around from reflector. please check bulb and place it once more.

I have a 2003 Hyundia Elentra. I had a directional bulb fall out in the headlight case. How can I get it out?

remove the headlamp assembly (three 10mm bolts). Disconnect the wire harness connector to the assembly. Locate the bulb socket where the directional bulb fell out. Counter-clockwise, twist the bulb socket and remove from headlamp assy. Either return the bulb to its socket, OR replace the bulb & re-insert the socket into the headlamp assy. Reinstall the Headlamp Assy.

2002 Hyundai Elantra GLS, headlights burn out constantly

Folks, I had this problem for years...it turned out that the voltage control module on the alterntor wasn't working correctly. It eventually led to a major problem with consistant operation of the vehicle. the dealer couldn't figure it out...it took a seasnoned mechanic to solve the problem. I haven't had a problem since I got the alternator replaced. Wear your gloves when you change them, yes, but don't discount your alternator.
