I am better at doing it than DH because my hands are small and fit better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128810 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:31:24 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1128810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not in my current car! I could on my last.<br /> My husband handles all the maintenence on our cars. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128775 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:23:31 +0000 avivoca 1128775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never have but am willing to give it the ol' college try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128774 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:23:29 +0000 VanillaBean 1128774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I have done it a few times myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128762 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:19:58 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1128762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH can but I have no idea. Next time one goes out he will probably show me. He likes for me to know how to do car maintenance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128756 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:18:00 +0000 LuLu Mom 1128756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could...but wouldn't! haha that's all up to DH! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128734 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:12:07 +0000 Mae 1128734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd look up a youtube video for my car make/model to see how hard it was. I have changed one in my old car, but when my husband's went out his were really complicated to change so we took it in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128718 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:09:01 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1128718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've probably changed half a dozen in my life and a radiator and can change a flat (as long as I can get the lug nuts loose). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128674 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:54:19 +0000 BSB 1128674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I have. I google my manuals all the time. I have more patience than the DH to this kind of stuff. </p> <p>My car needed a cabin filter replaced and the dealer was going to charge me $60. I googled it and it's a really easy fix. The filter cost me $14. Although, it's still sitting in my apartment. I should do it this weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128602 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:30:13 +0000 HabesBabe 1128602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: haha no, not under my car! but the headlights that were more ultra-white than the normal yellowish tint. I wasn't that bad, fortunately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128530 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:09:43 +0000 MapleMoose 1128530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and I have </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128526 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:08:07 +0000 yoursilverlining 1128526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I just take my car to the dealership and they do stuff like that for free (minus the $5 for whatever for the new bulb). I probably could figure out how to change it or do other minor repairs, but I have no desire to learn! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128522 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:06:29 +0000 PurplePeony 1128522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, can and have. It's kind of a PITA but I'd rather spend $3 and do it myself than waste time and money taking it to a mechanic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128520 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:05:49 +0000 Bookish 1128520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I looked it up last time on youtube and let DH do it, but I could take care of it myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128510 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:03:01 +0000 mrs. bird 1128510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: did you have those terrible blue lights under your car?? those were awful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128503 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:01:52 +0000 mrs. bird 1128503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH has been blessed with paws rather than hands, lol, and the poor guy can't get his hand in where the bulb goes in my car, so he can't fix it for me either (somehow he can on his tiny POS corolla, but not on my pacifica, it's just a PITA fixture i think)</p> <p>@Mrsbells: youtube is how i figured out how to do it on my old volvo! my dad tried to show me, but the youtube video is actually how i got through it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128497 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:00:43 +0000 swurlygurl 1128497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On my truck I could (and did). I don't know about my new car. I probably wouldn't even bother now that I have DH </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128495 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:00:21 +0000 Adira 1128495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No and I wouldn't even try. I'd just let the mechanic deal with it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128494 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 10:59:43 +0000 HabesBabe 1128494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup-- I used to change the headlights on my old car all the time (when the blue-tinted "euro lights" were a thing). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/could-you-change-a-light-on-your-car#post-1128471 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 10:55:44 +0000 skibobrown 1128471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH would.
