Change Headlight Bulbs in 2007-2011 Toyota Camry

This video will show you how to change the headlight bulbs on a Toyota Camry SE. I also show how to change the running/high-beam light bulbs. The inner bulbs are for running lights and high beams, the middle bulbs are for low beams. The outer bulbs are turn signals - please see my other videos for one showing how to replace the turn signal bulbs. The process is a bit different. You can do this yourself and save a lot of money over taking it to the shop. A typical shop will charge you upwards of $100 to do this simple job you can do yourself.
Low Beam Bulbs are:
H11 (US): Philips amzn.to/2H9Yxni , Sylvania amzn.to/2YURfhX
H7 (Australia): Philips amzn.to/2YURhq5 , Sylvania amzn.to/2KNDEza
Running Lights/High Beams:
HB3/9005: Philips amzn.to/31LLctb , Sylvania amzn.to/2ZhzWY4
Turn Signal Bulbs:
3457A or 3457ALL: amzn.to/2HcWjDz

[@erinalberti3443]

Omg thank you SO much!!! Single mom here and this video allowed me to do this by myself!! Thank you!!

[@dwcoffey]

That's great Erin! You should be proud of yourself...and you saved some cash!! Thanks for watching.

[@livinnlaffn3818]

You are not alone

[@mylaschir]

Me, too, Erin! Thanks, Dennis!

[@joyace9674]

Me too your not alone 😬💪we can do this 🤣learn as much as you can too much money to fix now in days but we will make it happen 💪

[@nick_sometin7791]

I'm black

[@ChildofAlmightyGod]

I was told my entire front end would need to be taken apart in order to do this. Thanks to you, I did it myself in a matter of minutes. Thank you so much for making this video!!! Saved me money and time!!!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you for watching! In order to replace the headlight assemblies, the front bumper does have to be removed, but replacing the bulbs definitely does not require that....as you found out! :) I'm glad this helped and good on you for doing it yourself! Thanks again!

[@a.soderquist2748]

Excellent and clear instructions that are easy to follow! You address your viewers with respect, which makes those of us who feel a little insecure about doing our own vehicle work empowered to do it! Thank you!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you Alisha! I've had a great teacher (my Dad) for years and he never assumed that others should know what he's talking about. I'm glad to know this helped you and you should be proud of yourself for tackling this yourself! Thanks again!

[@create_space812]

I agree! Dennis is very respectful of the audience.

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks very much for watching! Please leave comments and share your suggestions. Don't forget to like and share!

[@bishalkarki8569]

Dennis Coffey really helpful

[@jimpierce3138]

One of my brights is out. how do you replace that?

[@lukepetro4589]

Thank you for that clear, easy to understand description. One of my headlights went out tonight, and that's an instant ticket. I bought new ones and will change them out in the morning.

[@dwcoffey]

I'm sorry Jim, I just now saw your question. Use exactly the same procedure, just a different bulb. The running light/high beam bulb is HB3/9005.

[@timshipp1245]

I don't know what to tell you sir, but my 2009 Toyota Camry takes a 9,000 ball not an h-11 I bought the h-11 is because I watched your video I got home and I pulled it out and it was the wrong one

[@rickeyhughes4141]

I'm used to doing things like this, but it makes it so much quicker to watch people like you show the easy way to do these things instead of learning the hard way,thanks for the help!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you so much, Rickey! I appreciate you watching!

[@zed17317]

Just wanted to reach out and say thank you for posting not only this video, but the entire series on the 2007 Toyota Camry. I had lost my 2010 Honda CR-V to a deer accident, and had to quickly find a replacement, that being a used 2007 Toyota Camry. I picked it on hopes that it will last me through college, but the condition of the car isn’t the best. Your videos have come in handy when it came to fixing it up and making sure it’ll last! I appreciate the earnest and heart you put into these videos. Thank you!

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks you for watching and I'm really glad these have been helpful! I hope you can keep the Camry going well enough to get you thru college! hang in there!

[@steven628rodriguez]

Thanks Dennis for taking the time to make this video. Everything worked just as you described and it made the process go a lot smoother knowing the step-by-step instructions to complete the job.

[@dwcoffey]

That's great, Steven! I'm glad this helped and thank you for watching!

[@codyguilbeau3353]

just changed my headlights in like 10 minutes thanks to this video. thanks for the easy walkthrough

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad this helped! Thanks for watching, Cody!

[@Tbizzledawg]

Thank you very much for this video! I really appreciated the camera angles to see the parts clearly, and the detailed instructions. It really helped me to understand!

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad to know this helped! Thanks so much for watching Tristan, also thank you for the kind comment!

[@daves1646]

Before your video, I had not looked under the hood of my sons Camry. You gave me a great view of what I was working with, what to do, and that KEY reminder to keep the finger oil off the bulb surface (jogging the memory is always appreciated!). 10 min later, all done! Many thanks for showing us what it takes. Turned a ?? into a walk in the park. Thanks again!

[@dwcoffey]

Fantastic! Thanks for watching, David!

[@rizwanqazi3076]

Saved me the hassle of going to a mechanic and getting it done. Clear and concise instructions. 2:29 into it figured out how to unplug and replace. Many thanks!!

[@dwcoffey]

Fantastic! Glad to hear you were able to do it yourself. Thanks or watching and leaving a comment!

[@srinuvarma2816]

thank you mr dennis

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad the videos help!! Thanks for watching!

[@donaldtrainor1804]

GREAT video, Dennis! I watched it twice and it was as easy as you demonstrated. I was able to replace both headlights in ~15 minutes. Excellent.

[@dwcoffey]

Fantastic!! Glad to hear it helped and that you got it done quickly and _cheaply_! :)

[@okyereis]

Crisp and clear. Changed both the bulbs in less than 10 min. Thanks so much for the instructions.

[@dwcoffey]

Glad this helped! Thanks for watching!

[@tforties]

Thank you, Dennis! Knowing how to work the release/catch was a life-saver in getting the old high-beam bulb out that was all cramped in there behind the battery.

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad this helped! Thank you for watching!

[@DannySullivanMusic]

This made life a lot easier! Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Eric! I'm glad this helped!!

[@browsguy]

Thanks Dennis. Nice job. You provided all the key elements without glossing over them . That made it possible for me to make this swap without guess work.

[@chenyeyang44]

I love your channel! Everything you talk about is technical!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you so much! That's a very nice compliment!

[@ottawaguy2572]

No unnecessary talks to waste time. Very straightforward video. Thanks for saving me money and time as I was already thinking of taking my vehicle to the mechanic cos I thought the entire bumper had to be removed to change the bulb. Will get a bulb and do it myself now...

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you for watching!

[@lilsleepy3332]

i had the same thought for my taillight a few years ago. shame that when you google "how to change headlight" it shows you how to change the entire apparatus and not just the bulb. wish i had grown up in a car family lol

[@jackiemoore1535]

Thank you so very much!!! I was able to successfully change my headlight all by myself with your detailed instructions. I am most grateful!

[@dwcoffey]

That's great, Jackie! I'm glad you got it done. Thank so much for watching and commenting!
