I just replaced my bulbs today. Make sure you insert your bulbs correctly. If not, the brake light will work, but not the tail light. If done correctly, both lights will work as intended. On a 2004 Nissan Frontier, the brake light and the tail light are lit from the same bulb on each side (driver's and passenger's). Mahalo from Maui!!!
*****
You can put a new bulb in it or even swap the bulb from the other sides light. If that light is working you know the bulbs good. So if you swap the bulb and it now lights up you know the bulbs blown. If you swap it and it still doesn't light up there is an electrical issue. Let us know how the repair comes out!

Noticed the other day that the parking/running light was out on our 2003 Frontier, but it was less than obvious how to replace it. This video was excellent in showing that the entire light receptacle needed to be removed. The only point I would add is that after removing the two bolts as noted, the receptacle remains in place with an alignment pin and must be pulled straight forward to complete the removal. Otherwise, I couldn't have done it without you!

Thanks for posting! It was really helpful.
Loved your video. Very simple to follow your instructions. Note: If you could let the customer know that his straps make it a junky truck. At least use tie wraps, minimum.
NOTE: When putting the new housing in, you have to make sure the light unit clicks in to the molded clips at the bottom (just above the bumper
facia), it takes a pretty good bonk with your fist to make it clip in...otherwise your lights will be shooting about five degrees up, which is a lot in a headlight.I didn't know about that and drove around for a week or two blinding everybody and not seeing the road well. In fact I only discovered my error when I got frustrated trying to adjust one and gave it a light punch after dropping that one damn bolt for the fourth time.
Another tip--stuff a rag into the body below that inner mounting bolt so it'll get caught if you drop it, because you will.
thanks, very good illustration...
+Chris Scovitch Thanks for watching. Buy the part in this video on 1AAuto.com: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
On my 2004 frontier XE I found a clip at the bottom that you have to jolt it (the headlight structure) out of, once you have removed the top two bolts, of course. But, I'm still having an issue getting it out. Is there another clip on the bottom that you can't see? or just that one?
Were you able to figure it out?
@@montereybaymurals I just got a flat head and put it between the clip and pulled that worked for me on my XE sorry for a late response

IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING-
There is a clip on the inside (towards the grill) that is holding it in, it's much more obvious on the passenger side, use a long screw driver to pry it up and you'll just have to yank the headlight out.
Great tutorial
Thank you so much for this
The one time the. Faded lights look better than the new imo 😅
Siempre cambian el lado más fácil! 😁

Nice work Hombre amazing difference.
Great Video man. But they do sure love to make it impossible for us to change these headlights out, that bolt is a pain to get out.
Thanks for watching. I hear you, if it were easy tho then everybody would be doing it!

Kindly share a link to buy harness with buld holders for the small bulbs
Perfect. Thank you
thank you blessings
If there are no high or low beams, do I replace bulbs AND sealed beam? Oops. I see it's just bulb with high and low beams.
Thanks.... great video
A great help; thanks!
Thanks for watching!

Is the beam adjustment already set on the new housing or do I need to set it? Future reference.
Very helpful!
Do you sell the headlight wire harness? My side marker light socket got cut off during a fender bender. Thanks Carl
Thanks
hey I'm interested on the front bumper (full 5 piece) package for a frontier 2000
Where can i buy the wire harness for the light
Do you have to align/aim the lights after replacing the headlight assembly, so you don’t blind people when you drive at night?
+pedro alvarado Thanks for watching! Yes you will want to aim the headlights after installation to make sure they are aimed properly. Check out our video on how to do this here: czcams.com/video/GWvSWBlAwnI/video.html
what is the small light above the blink called?
what is that ring called? i need to get one for my 04 frontier.
Where can i fin that long extension that has a swiveling bit?
Great video. Is there any difference replace the lamp assy. on a 2000 Xterra?
It may be a different procedure on that particular vehicle. We do carry replacement headlights with FREE SHIPPING in the lower 48 states. Here's a link to them on our website. Hope this helps you out. www.1aauto.com/1A/HeadLights/Nissan/Xterra/-/-/2000?VideoReply&CZcams&ATony
I tried to replace the bulbs, however when I got the assembly off, the headlights were completely different, they're held in by a metal clip, and the bulb is nothing like I have ever seen before, its no bigger than the bulbs you see on your christmas tree, is there a way to get this off? And what bulbs do I need to replace it with? I have the Spec D headlight assembly.
For the record I bought the truck like that, I did not do any modifications to the assembly.
+Gregory Shepherd We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Seems like it's easier to drop the headlamps to replace the bulbs than to try to replace them while they are in place . . .
None of these videos are showing how to adjust the Nissan frontier headlights how to adjust the beam of the lights
is the bulb 9007 socket?
Heads up: This video does NOT apply to the D22 for the European market (Navara). I ordered LED bulbs to swap into my 2004 D22 Navara based on this video before I even removed the light housing (yeah, I only have myself to blame), but it turned out the European Navara turn signal bulb is a W21W (7440 / W2,5x16d) and not a P27W. Also, for some reason there is just one parking light bulb (still W5W, though) on each side.
How can I tell my bulb went out and it's not just an electrical issue?
Valiant wagon Nice 😜 hahaha
H4 bulb?
is it the same for 99 frontier?
Changing the headlights on a 99 Frontier may be different that the procedure shown in this video. We currently do not have an auto repair video that shows this procedure on that particular model. Thanks for watching. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 866-403-3393
Wrong. I have a 2001 Nissan Frontier. Took out the 2 bolts, and the assembly still does not come out
+Allan Marsh Thanks for the feedback!
2003 frontier xe. Front Parking Light out. Removed the 2 bolts. It's still fastened securely somewhere on the bottom of the Light Assembly. What might that be and how does it come loose?
Will the front clear cover come off?
Got it. Was able to reach the extension to the places it was stuck, then lever it loose.
Janet Arnold ... How I'd you get it out? Was it a plastic clip at the bottom?
No way I can do that to Old.
