How To Upgrade KIA Sportage Headlight Bulbs To LED

Let's face it the factory headlight bulbs in your KIA Sportage are not the best quality. This video will show you how to upgrade your KIA Sportage headlight bulbs to LED ones.

The typical life expectancy on a halogen headlight bulb is 450-1000 hours. LED headlight bulbs can last up to 40,000 hours before needing replacement!

2:59 the other light blinks due to the refresh rate being slower than the camera's frame rate. Basically the bulb is flashing so slow the camera is picking up the moments where it's not fully illuminated.

The reason you get the flickering on video is because LED has a fast cycling rate that is different than the frame rate of video. Good video

Thank you sir! Today i will change mine, one side has been dead for 2 months now, it's time for the LEDs. Greeting from Paraguay

This was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for the help

Great video. Ty . We just got my wife a 2015 Kia Sportage and we love the car

The biggest issue is not changing the bulb but the dustcap not fitting bc led lights have a larger heat sink in the back.

[Slavik]

Thanks a lot! Does it make a difference if a cable on the LED one is directed upwards or downwards? Because factory halogen bulb is directed downwards.

Great video! I tried changing to LEDs for my 2019 Sportage but I’m getting error codes. Did you get this too? If so how did you bypass? Thanks

[muhammadumer-knlb]

You have placed the cover back on and led has a fan. How will it cool down with cover on?

[markb]

When you put the LED in is it turned in the correct position? The tabs have to line up to get the bulb to go in dont they?

Any video on how to install the high beam bulbs!?

[CharlesKitts]

I'm just curious about on 2020 sportage in reference to the voltage or wattage, amperage if the LED lights will get hot enough to cause the harness to melt the rubber coating on the wires I had that happen on my impala

[BosllaLighting]

Boslla bulb light up your way~~~Enjoy it!

[TheScott]

Just bought these.. I’ll be sure to update how these hold up

[koffinNAILS]

I got some in my cart for my 07 colbalt

[DeathStar]

bought the 9006 HB/4 for my ‘17 kia sportage and it doesnt fit…the part near the base is whats blocking it from going into the hole completely to lock in place

[mikefredericks]

Any issues with warning ⚠️ lights on dash about headlight being out?

[mohamedrashad]

What about the daytime running light
I need to change it to be led instead of halogen

[jhonlopez]

Hey man very easy and simple explanation. How about 2014 Sportage. Can I use the same reference???

[michelc]

Is it safe to re install the cover? Since the led lights produce heat and they have like a fan installed in the back?
