Great job. That's what I need to do is replace my headlight assembly. 1A auto is a huge help when I need to do some work on my cars. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much! I was having trouble with my bulb because i didn't realize I had to squeeze the tab when taking it out lol! You helped me so much!

We currently do not have a video on how to replace the fog lights on this model.

I replaced the "bulb" without removing the assembly. It is a little difficult to disconnect it and unscrew the bulb, but it is doable. This video was useful for me, though. My car is Nissan Sentra 2006.

Thank you for posting. I was able to change the drivers side headlight bulb without any issues on my 2006.

Does anyone know where to find headlight relay I have no idea where it is

[OBZRV]

Does this installation apply to the 2002 model?

[spookerr]

Dont have to for pass side headlight repl. But you have to for drivers side! I just replaced a 9 yr old HID bulb w a newer better one I already had on hand form DDM. ALOT better than taking out the battery to gain access!!! Mine is a 2004 Sentra 1.8s.

What if I can’t disconnect the headlight? The amber light and everything else went smooth but I can’t disconnect the headlight.
Corrosion? Could it have arced a welded the connectors together? Rust?
There is condensation in the lens which is why I’m replacing it.

Hi i would like to ask if is the same method as well for nissan almera 2004?

[tajrulesyou]

The same headlight is screwed in properly, but the rubber gasket isn’t sitting flush against the side fender of the car. I can’t seem to figure out the reason. The other headlight, opposite of it, does this just fine. Any ideas?

[klovette]

can you tell me if you have to take the frame out just to change the bulb? thank you

[lachdanan]

Is there any difference between this model 1.8 version to the 2.5 SE-R Spec V version?

[vnca]

hi. i was wondering if you guys can do a tutorial on installing a right fender and the steel support for the bumper and the bumper itself for nissan sentra 2004. Thank you

[evanheath]

Okay so I'm replacing both my headlights on my '04 Sentra and my concern is taking the whole thing out. Would I have to take it out gently but but not too quick?

Great video but you don’t tell us how to adjust the lamp. Who can I take it to to adjust the lamp so the beams are correct
