Would like to change headlight bulb. Do you need to take off grill and loosen some bolts behind the fender well?

take off grille and theres a tab you need to unlock behind the access panel in the wheel wells.

Just curious but are you just replacing with just another OEM-Spec bulb or upgrading to something brighter?

hopefully its for something liked a brighter led bulb or hid. there are no halogen bulbs brighter then HIR2

I was going to just replace the bulb. I don't like the contrast between the LED fog and the headlight bulb. FCA should have thought about this when they were building this truck. anyone want to share a specific bulb they like.

And a guide on how to change out the build only please! Don't think anyone has posted one yet.

LED might be it then, that industry has been picking up so chances are it's going to be one of the better options for us to go with.

I know Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram have certain models with factory HIDs. Why can't this be an option? Is possible to get the factory HIDs from another Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, or Ram to work on a Rebel?

You can buy and install an aftermarket HID conversation kit, I did and it looks great

Yea I would also like to outfit the headlight to LED at some point. I prefer the Lights to match the LED fogs when illuminated

So i take apart the truck and i go to install the H11 bulb, bulb does not fit. Even though the bulb was the right one sylvania does not make the right fitment. anyone else know who make a great bulb but fits into the housing and locks in.
