Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your Sorento
* Turn off your car and allow it to cool down.
* Pop the hood and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
Step 2: Remove the headlight housing
* Locate the two Phillip-screws on the top of the headlight housing and remove them.
* Use a 9mm socket to remove the three bolts holding the housing in place.
* Gently pry the housing off of the car, be careful not to damage the paint.
* Pull the headlight bulb out of the housing by twisting counterclockwise.
* Inspect the bulb for damage or burnouts and replace if necessary.
Step 3: Replace the headlight bulb
1. To remove the low beam bulb, turn the bulb counterclockwise and pull it out of the housing.
2. To remove the high beam bulb, turn the bulb retainer counterclockwise and remove it from the housing.
3. Push the new bulb into the housing and turn it clockwise until it is locked in place.

Step 4: Test the headlights

* Turn on the headlights and check that they are working properly.
Here are some additional tips:
