Honda Fit headlights can be a little more difficult to replace than your average car. Here is the easiest way (in my opinion) to replace them. I may as well try out some new LED bulbs while I am at it.

I just needed to change the small peanut bulb above the headlight and other videos would have had me take off the bumper, etc. This method was quick and easy! Thank you for saving me time and money.

If these bulbs are truly designed to not blind drivers, most LEDS on the road are poorly designed. People with astigmatisms like me (33% of the population) are constantly and painfully blinded by oncoming traffic we well as lights in our rearview mirrors. It feels like almost everyone has high beams on these days. When not looking directly at my mirrors, the lights appear to flicker, so I think someone is trying to signal me by flashing their lights.

This is the best video on youtube for exactly what I needed. Replacing the bulbs should not be a chore but thanks to the automakers it is. However you saved me a whole lot of time. Thanks for this video.

just did this and tore my arm up on the first side lol. a few tips if youre about to do this:
- turn your wheel outward rather than in, you need the room up top not the side.
- the metal clip is pretty hard to get on over the new LED light...it is possible tho you just have to push hard (you can see it clip in from the front of the light if you find it hard to feel out)
- also regarding the metal clip, push it ALL the way out to slide the new LED in way easier, if you dont it's really finicky to find the three slots
- dust cover trick works awesome.

Good video! Thank you.
I'll give 2 pieces of advice. First, get the lenses restored/cleaned. That's the first step. Always. Because, no matter what kind of bulb you install behind the lens, if the lens is not clear, the light will reflect back into the lens and you won't see the benefit of the LED bulb or any other bulb. Second, I recommend not installing the dust cover back. The LEDs need plenty of cooling and heat dissipation for the chip. If they overheat, the chip fails. Most vehicles don't even come with those rubber boots. Those LEDs you installed are ok. I prefer Lasfit. The beam pattern is more consistent and they are a US based company with a great track record. Cheers!

This is a fantastic video. Well organized, clear and most importantly to the point. I am impressed, I'll be buying a pair of these bulbs due to this fantastic review. Liked!

With the dust cover popped out are you getting any dust in your headlight? Since it’s not sealing around the bulb itself like oem I was worried about dust entering. Great video! Glad I found this!!

I did the same conversion in my 2009 FIT. They are brighter, but don't produce a beam, but kind of light up everything around. I'm not sure if I liked them or not. I eventually replaced both headlamps which had the standard bulb. I have left it that way. Not sure if the LEDs really give you that much advantage.

The lights that came with my Honda Jazz (fit) I`d call a joke except, driving at night with them was not funny at all! I changed my bulbs for Osram `Night breakers` & OH MY GOD, what a difference, I can actually drive comfortably at night!

Any updates on how they are holding up?

Well good video, but the way you have kept the dust cover is not appropriate the dust cover needs a bit trimming on the the bulb holder side, the led holder needs to be installed 1st then penetrating the led bulb in the dust cover. Installing the bulb and dust cover simultaneously. I know it is tough I have done it in honda amaze a sedan version. But unfortunately in honda jazz n fitt there is no space to use the procedure I mentioned but this procedure will never let dust enter in your reflector. I wish I had sources to put my words into video.

But appreciate your efforts and work!

1, whats the wattage for the original bulbs and the replacement LED bulbs?

2, what is the highest wattage LED bulbs you can install without any modification (wires, fuse)?

It's been several months since your initial video post, which was a great, helpful video, by the way. Has the rubber dust boot/cover gotten melted (yet) with the addition of your new LED bulbs? Any issues with the bulbs?
