I recently replaced the headlight bulb on my Arrizo 5 by myself, and the whole process went quite smoothly. Let me share my experience. First, park the car on a flat surface and turn off the engine. Open the hood and locate the clip behind the headlight assembly—it's secured with screws. Unscrew them carefully to avoid stripping the threads. Then, unplug the electrical connector and remove the old bulb—the Arrizo 5 uses an H7 type, which costs only about 20-30 yuan online. When installing the new bulb, wear gloves to avoid touching the glass surface, as oil residue can affect brightness. Align it with the socket and press it in gently, then reconnect the plug and tighten the screws. Finally, test the lights to ensure they work properly. The whole process took just ten minutes and saved me repair fees, making it perfect for DIY enthusiasts.
Replacing the headlight of the Arrizo 5 is not difficult, I did it step by step: prepare a new H7 bulb and a Phillips screwdriver, make sure the car is turned off for safety. Open the hood, locate the headlight assembly, loosen the fixing screws but don't remove them completely, unplug the power connector and then slowly take out the old bulb. Handle the new bulb gently and install it into the socket, never force it or touch the glass, plug the connector back in and tighten the screws to check for stability. Test by turning on the headlights to confirm there are no flickering issues, the whole process takes about 10 minutes, and you can find detailed video guides online for clearer instructions. Doing it yourself saves time and money, choose a high-quality bulb for better durability.
