Seriously, a life saver of a video. I knew the bumper had to come off, but I didn’t think it would be that easy. I’ll be doing this myself in a little while. Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback!
This video was extremely helpful. I’m confident that I could do it myself. Thanks again guy!!!
Thank you, i finally changed the headlights of my charger. Very clear instructions. Was a royal pain and took a few hours but got it done. Thanks again
Video was very helpful. I just swapped out for aftetmarket headlights on my 2010. I also cheated a little and left the bottom bumper cover fasteners in place. I found the cover flexed enough to do the swap. Anyway, Thanks!!!
This was very helpful! I’m my own machanic and I have an 08 police Dodge Charger with the same lights and needed the right way to replace. Thanks for the video!!
Martin, your videos are excellent. I just came back from the junk yard and was able to get all the parts I needed after learning how to take them out because of your videos. Thanks a bunch for helping others save money.
My replacement headlight assemblies just arrived so I will be doing this in a couple days. Thank you for this video!
this is by far the best tutorial I've found on youtube, thank you!
Awesome video. I’ve watched it twice now. Super helpful, Months ago I Dropped about $1000 on Spyder headlights, fog lights, tail lights and a lumen led conversion kit. Finally tackling it today, not too worried about the bumper removal after seeing this. Haha , more or less the task of wiring every thing up correctly!
Thanx Marty Mar... You are an inspirational genius. I really appreciate You illustrating at normal Speed, as one would do considering that installations should be done for 'Dummies ' ( like myself. I'm an author, I have zero mechanical skills) Much appreciative of You doing both sides which also gives the novice a chance to remember previously. Unlike other videos that go at warp speed like you possess their aptitude. I mean it Marty Mar, you make me know that I can tackle this, alone, but should I need any assistance, You are the only one that I will refer to, for any of my mechanical needs. Thanx for your help and for being a true professional
Excellent video, the best I've seen on this topic. Just the facts, along with helpful tips, and no extra chatter. Good camera angles too, and good editing.
Absolutely awesome video
Excellent Job Explaining~ Thank You!!!
Awesome Video! Thx for the much needed insight! 😊
Great video guys! I couldn’t remember the socket sizes. The days are shorter and I’ve been putting this off for months. I have the projector type headlights and one of the ballasts blew due to water getting into the cracked housing. The ballast is attached to the bottom side of the housing with four small screws. Amazon sells an awesome kit with plastic clips and a removal tool for about ten bucks. Anyway, thanks for the video, now I can get off my ass!
This was very helpful you saved me a lot of trouble! Thanks for the video! 😎👍
Gonna be getting after market headlights so this helps a lot
Very informative video. Thanks guy.
Appreciate it man. I got back early and my buddies still deployed and I'm in charge of fixing his headlights 😂
Hey man I greatly appreciate your video !

I’m glad the video will help you! Sometimes the bolts from the fender to the bumper can be tough to reach. Just be patient and take your time. Also, you are the second person to say I resemble Don Johnson. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. I bought aftermarket headlights for my 09 charger but they both the light and the signal light are one piece and I cannot put back the bumper as a result (there is a lip that needs to go under the headlight. Do you have any idea how to go around this and install the bumper again? Thanks
This is great.
Good job...when you adjust the headlight beam pattern...does that require a Phillip's or a torx? I saw you mention a Phillip's and the forums say a torx, just curious...let me know thank you
Thank you
Nice! Thx
very good
Do you have any advice about putting the bumper back on ?
Do you have to adjust the beam pattern in the new housing?
Just bought myself new headlights for Christmas and forgot that the entire nose cone had to come off. This video helped. I plan on doing it tomorrow.

nose cone?
@SRTBOAT
Жыл бұрын
@@logan-nc1hg chargers dont just have a front bumper. It goes over the headlights and all the way up to the hood, so people commonly call it a nose cone.
If you needed to change the bulbs, do they pop right out?
I ended up trying to remove the bolt and it snapped… how do I get the remaining metal inside out ty
What size socket for the last nut
Can I put a 06 on a 07 front bumper
Its also easier if u use the pry bar screw driver where its got the slot in the middle not just for perforamnce but also makes sure not to damge ur clips
شكرا اجمل لايك 👍
Thanks for the help! I really wish I didn’t have to pull my entire bumper off just to swap my halogens to LED’s
Very helpful….but I’m gonna leave foggy headlights….unless you wanna do the job for me! Ha!
Could you do a video on how to replace the fog lights? That’d be great!

8mm screws holding the light in place.
I have one 2007 I can put another grill and put lights from another of the same brand but more new🤔🤔
How difficult was it to get the bumper back on? Mine is rather tight by each wheel and won’t slide in.

Try standing in the middle of the car and placing the bumper on from that position. Line up all the holes at the top where the clips go, and then it should slide in easier on the sides. It might take you a few tries to get it in perfectly.

Around 3:38 in the video do anybody knows what kind of socket did he use for the socket wrench for that bolt?
@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC

10mm socket.
that fender nut is the biggest pain in the ass that i’ve experienced, i’m removing my wheels to better get to it
If they are prone to collect water go ahead and drill a drain hole at the bottom so it can drain out and not corrode over again.
Bro I can’t get the wheel well clips off

Pry tool helps. Pull the plug, then the rivet. The plugs on half my rivets fell apart when I tried to remove them from the hood, and I ended up ripping them out with some pliers. None of the rivets holding the bumper to the wheel well were reusable. You can get replacements on Amazon super cheap. Just look up GOOACC.
Holy crap. All that just to replace a couple headlights? Dodge should have designed that better.

Yep, at 5:36 to 5:38, it was bloody buckle time. The bare bumper is sharp.
What a nightmare!
I love dodge but they screwed up on this. It could’ve been made so much easier.
It took me three hours it’s not hard just tedious
goddam all that just to change the light x.x very helpful video, but good god what a poor design the chargers have.
Anyone else think this is the dumbest way to have to remove your headlights? I love my charger but god dang.
