LED Bulb Installation on a 2018 Kia Niro HEV
Here are is a brand I use in my vehicles. Not the same as the bulbs I installed, since they're no longer available on Amazon.
AUXITO 9005 HB3 LED Bulbs 6000K White, 700% Brighter HB3ll 9005ll LED Light Bulb with Fan for Hi/Lo Beam, 98% Canbus Ready, Plug and Play, Pack of 2 a.co/d/4SQzCub
Or
AUXITO 9005 LED Bulbs 15000 Lumens Per Set 6500K Xenon White Mini Size HB3 Wireless Light Bulb for Halogen Replacement, Pack of 2 a.co/d/fs36vhW
I am not sponsored by them, this is just a brand I have used that has been the most reliable and consistent in quality. They have LED bulbs for many vehicle makes and models.
Please make sure you buy a DOT road legal bulb that ia not labeled "Off-road use only" or for a fog light configuration. Those will not be adequate as a High/Low Beam.

Thanks for posting this! You would not believe how much the dealerships were trying to quote us for this work. Only cost $20 and 20 minutes to diy
This is what I love about KZread. Thank you so much, brother.
Thank you for the video. I thought I’d had to take it to my mechanic to install these led lights on my 2021 Kia niro. They can do it myself. Easy. I’m just tired of the regular non-white lights in the front when the led lights are at the bottom of the headlights and they are the driving lights.

Glad I could help. I looked online and I couldn't find a video online myself. At the time I was making videos when I was unemployed during the pandemic. I have not been able to upload since I have a full time job now. Thanks for your comment. 🙌
Thanks so much man! I used these instructions but replaced a halogen. Worked like a charm!

I'm glad I was able to help. The owner's manual doesn't show you very well how to replace it.
Thank you I got to replace a light bulb for a family member!!
Thanks for the video
Thanks for filming this 🤙
Hello, the description has been updated with a link to a brand I recommend. You can use any bulb you prefer. Unfortunately, the bulbs used in this video are no longer offered on Amazon. They've been working great and visibility is improved over the stock bulbs.
I'm not a fan of LED bulbs in closed spaces like this, they'd have to reduce brightness because of the temperature inside since the fan has no access to the fresh cold air.
hi, have u tried to replace the fog light by chance? Accessing the 2018 niro fog light doesn’t seem to be possible from the tire area.
Thank you for the video!

It doesnt matter if you touch the glass of the hold bulb since you're replacing it.

Thank you. It didn't occur to me. Usually the bulbs are being replaced because they burned out, so yes it doesn't matter to touch the glass. The old bulbs were still working, always a good idea to keep a pair in the trunk for an emergency. 👍
I really wanted to see the result, how does the leds looks😀 These bulbs are error free, no any warning lights on dash after installation?

The LEDs look great. There is not an error code on the dash.
It says fog lights, are these right for the normal lights?

After reviewing thie video, yes the packaging can be confusing. I recall these can be used for BOTH, either as High/Low Beam or Fog lights. Not every bulb is made this way. I always suggest to read the item description when shopping online or customer reviews. Hope this helped clarify.
I didn't find the link 😕
