Thank you for doing this video. That headlight assembly is very hard to get out and even harder to get back in. If I didn't see you force it I would have probably taken my Elantra without the headlights back to the dealer and paid for an installation. A very, very tight fit indeed! But after 'snapping' them back in, no problem whatsoever. Thanks again.

Great video and very clear explanation. I have a similar chinese made balast, one thing I did for the ballast is to unscrew the nickle plated knurled knob and fill the void with silicone sealant just to prevent moisture from entering the ballast.

luv the size of the ballast and the weight looks very light. Nice installation.

I clicked on your video to see how easy it would be to replace the entire headlight. Very thorough, extremely easy to follow. You are a natural teacher. Good job bud!

I really appreciate your videos sir. They helped me decide to purchase a used 2013 Hyundai Elantra Limited for my fiance today. Thank you for taking the time out if your life to make all of these videos and give people like me another perspective on the vehicle. Very much appreciated!

+locoboof You're definitely welcome.. And thank you. May I make a suggestion? It would be beneficial to your subscribers to list the brand/model and maybe even a link to the parts that you've ordered (HID's/Relay/New Key Fob, etc). It makes it easier to find what you've successfully purchased and used in your Elantra. Just my two pennies anyway. :)

thanks... glad I could help

thanks for the info, it was really tight space because the plastic covering doesnt go back far enough...so my hand got scratches and bled lol. Ima have to try it again someday. When you take the headlights out the fog lights are not expose at all?

Great job player!!! Thanks

@StefanThe443 -does it void the warranty? Maybe. But if I had a issue I'd just take it out before going to the dealer...

Hey locoboof I have a 2013 Elantra limited with the technology package and I was able to install the same kit without the relay wiring kit. Though this would be good info for other people. Thank you for the video. Rob

No complaints so far.

Lol,well I'm glad my video helped a little bit :)

I installed LED. Those LED fit perfectly and brighter than HID.

Well done! Very thorough. The only thing was that my kit did not have the adapter plugs (oval to rectangular LB plug.

That's odd

@Salvatore Noti -if you wanted to add HID's to the high and the low beams you'd need two HID kits (four bulbs) and two relay kits

Thanks!

Hey like your videos, but I have one question, can you still use you low beam/regular night lights and switch it to high beams with this kit, like a dual filament bulb?

Hi, do you know If I Need the relay kit For a HID fog lights For a 2013 Elantra or sonata? Thanx for your video it was very helpful.

loco what lights do you have on the back of your elantra i like those

Is there a way to disable the DRL? That was step 1 in my Subaru HID installation kit. This would avoid issue's mentioned at the end of the video.

yeah... a lot better than the old thick ballast. thanks :)

I that may be a problem,... is your fogs on a separate relay? could be draining too much power from the car... they make a HID kit for the fogs? that came with ballast and all?

@justinnate82 -very very easy! Get the right bulb size,relay kit and you're in business. It's the same install process for all cars. As long as you can get to the headlight bulb you're golden. Make sure to get a extra bulb or two.

Do you like the looks of the car with the non HID high beam light on, do you find they look odd with the two different colors

The little pink line near the bulb I have cracked. Just the pink line though. Would it still work?

I never took out the whole for light housing.... Just reaching from under....then propping something up against the plastic to hold it back. Then reaching up to the bulb and twisting to release the bulb

Good job, man! Just wonder if installing HID will void the factory warranty?

Thanks!! Hey,that's a great idea! :)

Did you install the HID for high or low beams? Also, did you or do you plan on adding the HID kit for your fog lights? I am a big fan of consistency and think that all 4 lights should look similar. I just bought a red elantra yesterday. Looks good, and thanks!

cool lights

What size bulb did you get? I just purchased a 2013 Elantra Coupe and it looks like its the same as far as install but Im not sure what size hid bulb I should get. Great diy vid btw

Did you insta a relay kit like I said to do?

The Magnuson Moss act clearly states that your warranty cannot be voided by the installation of some aftermarket product on your car. For example; if you change your headlights, your dealer cannot void the warranty on your transmission. To be clear, however, your car's manufacturer will not cover and damage or mistakes you make, and/or systems affected by the installation of aftermarket products.

how many miles were on it when you first got it... when i got my charger it only had 13 but it was brand new basically

Sorry, don't know if my last comment posted or not. But, do you plan on putting a HID kit on your foglights? I'm a big fan of consistency and think it looks best if all 4 lights match. Car looks great! Thanks.

@Salvatore Noti -those are just the regular lights the car comes with :)

Did you have any issues with your Daylight Running Lights (DRL)? I have a 2013 Hyundai Elantra and installed this kit. They work when I turn the key to the On position, but as soon as the engine is started, they shut off. Thoughts?

@streetpunk99 -thanks for the heads up

@Skinssuk -yes,actually I am. I have a part 1 of a review I did...then a part 2 a 3 month later review.

thanks

Cool! Thanks a lot. I'm going to buy a kit soon and hopefully I won't need my bf, except he's the one with all the tools.

I was going to but I really didn't want 2 HID kits and 2 relay kits in my car (total of 4 ballasts).... plus I couldn't find the fog light bulbs in a HID bulb

hey do you know which "blub size" i will have to use for the 2013 Hyundai Sonata?

do i need a hi low kits for elantra as 2 seperate bulbs or they both 1 bult

a HID kit is High Intensity Discharge light kit... basically you get very very bright headlights... like in a BMW or a Mercedes Benz or a escalade ...plus they last a lot longer than a normal bulb

Not sure if I replied....but I show the info in the video

I don't mind,I rarely use my high beams. If I do it's only for a second or two to alert someone. With these HID lights they are plenty bright. So I never use my high beam

I only installed for the low bean. If you take a look and how your High beam is installed in this car.... you would want to drill through the metal

Are you going to put Hid lights on the fog lights?

Just wondering. Will installing this HID kid void the 5 year bumper to bumper warranty?

do u know how to access the fog light to change the bulb? i tried the bottom but its a hard reach from there.

It's been 6+ months now any problems with Xentech kit? My girl bought me this kit for Christmas and I'm going to install it as soon as I can. My only concern is this kit doesn't come with a harness grommet and I'm worried about moisture getting into the light assembly. Have you had any problems with moisture getting into the light assembly or any problems at all with this kit? Thanks in advance.

how powerful is your ballast? 35w or 55w?

do I absolutely have to take light assembly out to install HID kit? it seems like I can install it without taking out light assembly...

I got a Hyundai Accent 2010... Is that so easy to get the light out from the car ? (with 3 bolts that you just remove from your Elantra ?) And my HID light kit is Eurolite 6000k...Can you help me with some advices ?

have u had any problems? i want to do it but im scared if i put it and something wrong happends they void my warranty and i have extended also....

@apcp2002 -oh,ok. I just bought a relay kit.....that's only 10.00 and I mad a video about that too......but thanks for the tip.

i i have a question where i can buy the HID kit, because in ebay or amazon there are many light´s brands and i dont now how is the better. cant you help me please. or can you give me the link when i can buy. thanks

@myheartisinohio16 -it'll work... These kits are universal. Just make sure you tell them the correct bulb type and color. Worst case you don't need the plug in on the kit...take off the plug a d stick in the two metal pins to your existing plug. Inbox me a link to your video

thanks!! I'm pretty sure it will....but If I have a issue where they need to go under the hood.... I"ll just take it out really quick then go to the dealer. with a ten year 100,000 mile warranty.... I'd have to wait 10 years to put in one of these kits and not void the warranty :)....lol

does this avoid your waranty?

Really liked this video, I myself have a Hyundai Elantra 2015 model in Australia. Now our bulbs are slightly different.... but to be honest that doesn't bother me.. but I do appreciate how much extra detail you went into and all the extra tip and tricks that you added (like the hot glue gun etc). Thumbs up from me :) Do you do much more demonstration videos on the Hyundai Elantra?

Nice car

everything works the same... these are just low beam but on the elantra the high beam is a separate bulb.... I only changed the low beam... so fog lights and high beams are not effected at all

Do you lose the warranty of the car??

Where did you get your HID kit from?

They also got better relay out now that connect to both headlight power supplys What I use much better

Don't remember really..... But I think your right. H11 Low beam

@trucarlos -I think if you watch the WHOLE video I explain that

@RobertoLuisMejia -probably.....but since the kit is so easy to install.....I'd just remove the kit before going to the dealer.... You know how dealerships are,they'll look for any reason not to do warranty work.

@Mindoin -you need a relay kit

Regardless you'll have the issue because it draws too much power ... There's a switch to the the DRL on or off

If you're worried or scared,don't attempt it. But if you but the relay kit and this kit you'll be fine. This may void your warranty though...

It's as easy as it looks in the video here. Just make sure you've got a relay kit

Yes... For every HID kit you need a relay kit

@citroengtslayer1 -no,I don't think I'll be doing anything to this car.

Can you do all of this without taking the light housing off?

I have one low beam out and the bulb is fine. I think it's a problem with the wiring in the car. Will this fix it, or do the original wires still need to work correctly? The high beam works btw, it's just the low beam that won't light up

i found a bulb its a bulb size 881 and my problem is its a 35w HID kit and the Hyundai wattage for the fog light factory wire harness is 27w. i think i need a relay kit to power the lights. but good news is the bulb fits

My lights on my 2013 elantra look great but after they turned on with the switch i went to turn the car off and the lights stayed on and will not turn off even when the car is off and the light switch is off. Do you know what could be happening?

@locoboof

8 жыл бұрын

Sounds like they are wired wrong. They are connected to the battery directly. The battery is on 24/7 so that's why they stay on. You need to disconnect them and reconnect correctly

Can't, it's a much smaller bulb size... no HID kit that I'm aware of has lights that will fit the smaller light housing

Whats the link where you ordered your kit?

@locoboof

5 жыл бұрын

The link should be in the description, but it’s better if you don’t buy this. There’s a much easier and better solution. Please look at my LED headlights I bought and installed a few months ago. I have a video.... it’s brighter, cheaper and easier. Simple plug and play

You have to lay on your back....get under the car...undo the screws holding the plastic coverings ....then you should be able to reach up to the fog light from underneath the car.

I think that's the problem too... you need a relay for that HID kit as well... it's drawing too much power

Do you need a relay kit for 2011 Hyundai Elantra
