car suggestion

Jul 21, 2009 20:41

Ok so if you guys read my previous entry, you'll know I need my headlights changed. I'm not sure where to go BUT i know I don't wanna be raped in the BUTT :(
so should I go to a hyundai dealership (the car is 5 years old now) or somewhere else?
any tips? *need to get this done soon ;-;*

thanks!

This is what i would do. If the light is just burned out and there is no electrical problem, just look up your make and model car of the internet with how to change headlight. My previous cars were soooo easy. They barely required any tools to do it but i don't know what your car would be like. See if it's easy and someone already did it. You could save a lot of money.

oooh cool. I think I can do that :D
it's like changing a light bulb...kinda hehe

some are complicated tho. I heard Lexuses are pains in the ass.

agreed...
I had it installed for free at pepboys so win win :D

I agree. Modern cars tend to be pain in the asses to fix anything, but hopefully your headlights should still be pretty easily self changeable.

Yeah, I would look into changing it yourself. It'd be a lot less of a hassle. Jiffy Lube would probably do it (they were bugging the crap out of me to change my tail-light when I went to them to get my oil changed [I had a coupon XD]), but they were trying to charge me $10 to change it. =/ They can be pretty easy to change. =D I'd try that first.

lol I went to pepboys to buy the bulbs and asked how much they were charging to install them. They initially said $9.99 but installed it free since I bought the bulb from them ($17) :D

I watched him install it and it took a good 15-20 minutes. He checked the fuse to make sure nothing was wrong with the connection before installing. So yeah I'm glad I got it done by a professional.

Yay! =D I'm glad you got it done. I have another tail light out, but I haven't gotten it done because I'm lazy. XD I have the other two working, so it's still legal. XD
