How to change your headlight bulbs on a G37 (with Pictures!!!)

[CYO44Baseball32]

For everyone who has had a hard time or is confused about changing their headlight bulbs this is for you.

Today I wanted to check if I could remove my fog lights so I could change the bulbs. (the answer is yes) While I was at it I took so pictures and circled what is what.

Here we go:

1. Loosen lug nuts on a front tire (I started with the left front one)

2. Jack car up and remove lug nuts and tire

3. pop out the three plastic clips on the wheel well so it can be folded behind the brake. after that you will see this once you look in their





Circled in red is the HID, Blue is the fog light, and Yellow is your parking lights

4. next step is to removed the covers of the HID's and the fogs, just twist left and they should pop off and will look like this

Note: carefully with the fog cover because wires run through it, so don't rip them out.



Now for each of the three bulbs its a little different:

HID's- twist HID connection to the left (circled in purple)



After this you will need to remove the screw using a small phillipshead. After that the light should come out easily.

Note: Be careful because the oil from your fingers will damage the bulb, so don't touch it

Then insert new bulb and do the steps in reverse

Fogs:- Unscrew the 2 screws using a small phillipshead. Bulb should easily come out. You can leave the wiring connected so it won't be a pain to reconnect the wire after you put it back in. (fogs are circled in blue)



Note: Be careful because the oil from your fingers will damage the bulb, so don't touch it

Insert new bulb then reverse the steps

Parking:-This is the toughest to get to because the area is so tight. A long black plastic piece sticks out, so take that and twist to the left. Your bulb and will come out with it. (The area is circled in yellow)



Now insert new bulb and do the steps in reverse.

There you go everyone! Hope this makes things easier and if you have questions e-mail me. [email protected]

Excellent work!!!! Simple, straightforward and self evident. Now, if I only had the muscle to do all of this by myself.

Why can't you? Its not very difficult to turn any of them. I had my g/f do my parking lights the first time I changed them b/c my hand was too big to fit in there b/c I didn't take the wheel off.
