How to Replace Headlight 2004-08 Chevy Malibu
Created on:
Tools used
10mm Socket
Ratchet
1. Handling the Bulbs
Note: DO NOT TOUCH the bulbs- the oil from your fingers will burn into the light and foul your bulb.
Clean with rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth if the bulbs do get touched.
2. Remove the Head light assembly
Pop the hood and secure it.
Remove the two 10 mm bolts at the top of the head light assembly.
Lift the light up and out.
Unplug the head light assembly from the harness.
To change the bulbs, twist off the plastic cover to access them.
Remove the harness clip from the old headlight assembly if you are replacing it.
3. Install the new head light assembly
Transfer the harness clip to the new head light assembly
Plug the head light assembly into the harness.
Position the head light assembly in place and bolt in the two 10 mm bolts with your socket and ratchet.
Close the hood and enjoy your new 1A Auto headlights.
Brought to you by 1AAuto.com your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet.
In this video, I'm going to show you how to remove and replace the headlights on this 2006 Malibu sedan, same as the Malibu Maxx as well. I show you both replacing the entire headlight assembly, as well as just replacing the bulbs.
Maybe you've gotten into a little accident or something, or a rock took out one of your headlights, or maybe as you can see on this vehicle in the before, you want to take your kind of clouded, faded headlights and replace them with nice new headlights from 1A Auto you can see in this after picture. It only takes about ten minutes, or five or ten minutes per side. All's you need is a 10 mm wrench. Again, you can go from an old car looking like this, take a bunch of miles, and it looks like this.
With the hood open, it's pretty easy. There are two 10 mm bolts, one here and one here. We use a 10 mm wrench or a socket and ratchet. Now I'll just speed up here as I remove those two bolts. Now lift the light up and out. You got a connector right here. You pull back on this tab and disconnect it. If you're looking to replace bulbs, you just twist these covers right off. The bulbs are inside. You can twist and pull the bulb out. Then remove the harness, so you have to pry out all these kind of ears here. Pull the harness down and off. Then the re-installation is just the reverse. Same thing for the parking side marker, it just pulls out of the socket. Push it back in.
Here's the new light from 1A Auto. You can see how much more clear it is. The only thing you're going to want to do is on the back of your old one, there's a little clip right here. Pull it off, use a small screwdriver, kind of keep your thumb on it. Pull out. Take it off. Lay it aside. Get into our new headlight. Right down here push it on. Headlight down. Plug it in. There's two pins that go into holes right down here. Just make sure those go down in. The gasket fits all flush. We'll speed it up here again as I start those two 10 mm bolts in, and then tighten them up with the socket and ratchet. We hope this helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the internet and in person.

I recently purchased head light assemblies and taillight assemblies for my 2006 Chevrolet, I couldn't be more pleased with the products, They look great on the car and more importantly my wife is pleased with her lights being fixed. I would definitely recommend purchasing future car items from them,

One of my bulbs on my last headlight set had melted (original lights), so I needed to get a replacement. These were cheaper than any other place online or at my local auto stores. They were also super easy to install.

Nice headlights...with few concerns
Dominick
March 12, 2017
They are nice headlights. When installed they sit a little higher on my car. So when the hood is down they sit up a little so it's not a smooth transition from hood to headlight. I had the headlights installed for 2 days and the bulb burned out. It was a brand new bulb and I never even opened that area so I can't figure out how the bulb burned out so quickly.

I tried 1AAuto for the first time ever based on the reviews I have read searching for a pair of headlights for my 2005 Chevy Malibu. Ordering on line was very easy and getting the right parts was accurate and fast. The delivery was fast and I was very pleased with the way things were safely packaged. The customer service was of something you don't see with a lot of business today and that is outstanding with a 5 star rating. The headlights fit perfect and installed very easily. This is a company I trust to stand behind their products and, I will definitely be doing more business with 1AAuto.

Great upgrade!

Great product. Easy install. It shipped with all the bulbs so an incredible value. Took me about seven minutes to install and another three to adjust the beam once it got dark. I cannot think of a better, cheaper, faster way to improve the look of an older car than these replacement headlights. Also improves safety with super bright illumination!
I am very pleased with this purchase from 1AAuto!

Really nice, but after a few days I did notice some patches of moisture inside both of them. Got me to thinking about how sealed they really are. They do work and look better then the others, just wondering for how long.
Headlights worth the money

These lights make all the difference in driving. I can finally see the road as one should. I knew these new lights would make a difference, but this is more than I expected. Also, the beauty of these lights aren't bad either. they also came with the bulbs, sweet. I would recommend these lights to my friends !
Headlight lenses are not sealed

November 11, 2017
We installed these headlight assemblies on a 2004 Chevy Malibu MAXX and discovered after the first rain that the lenses were not sealed. Water was inside the headlight lenses. We had to remove the headlight assemblies, seal with silicone, then reinstall.

Headlights were delivered quickly. Upon opening and inspecting them they looked great, very sharp and to my surprise included all the bulbs. However I did notice that the driver's side assembly was defected. But that was resolved with a quick phone call and 3 days later a new assembly arrived.

Headlights arrived very quickly. Boxes arrived great shape. Arrived with ALL of the bulbs!!! Passenger side light went in without a hitch. Driver side I had to cut off the tab that goes thru the hole in the fender. Not that big a deal though. Driver side turn signal did not work at first, it just stayed lit. I uninstalled the headlight and tried a different bulb, no luck.
I looked in the bulb socket and the connectors were bent to one side and touching. I took a small screwdriver and moved the sides apart so the bulb would slide in between them. It worked, They look great on my daughters car and the difference is amazing compared to the old faded lights.

The Headlights arrived in the as advertised pristine condition. Except for a small mismatch in bodylines, on the right side only, they fit Beautifully. I didn't really realize how dim the original headlights had become until I put the new ones in. What a Difference!!!
Nice fit

January 13, 2018
These were packaged well and arrived undamaged. Took about 5 minutes to install each headlight assembly. They seem to fit nicely. Came with all bulbs pre-installed. Gave a 4 star since I don't know how long it will take for the lenses to fog...like the old ones. Good value overall.

I had my mechanic install the assemblies for me while the car was in the shop for its annual state inspection, and he was surprised at the quality of them considering that the shop usually only buys from NAPA. On my side of things I must say that this is the first time I have had nonfogged assemblies on a car and WOW does it make a difference. Since my car is getting on in years and I didnt want to spend much on parts 1A will become my go to parts supplier.

My 97 Malibu had some foggy headlights even after restoring them. I didnt feel like going through the process again just to have them start fogging again. I saw an ad on YouTube and checked the site out. I couldnt get these headlights any less expensive anywhere else. They fit perfectly! Ill search out A1 Auto again!
New headlights fit well and look great

Received the headlight assemblies and swapped them out. The fit was good and they were a tremendous improvement over the old ones with 147,000 miles.
Great quality and appearance, but uneven pattern
Michael
October 9, 2018
The appearance is great, replacing the existing 14 years old headlight assembly. Direct fit, no issues. However, the low beam pattern is not even as the original ones, thus one star taken.

January 2, 2019
Ordered a pair of headlamps, 1st pair leaked water inside, 2nd pair the left one was good passenger side leaked like crazy, after 5 headlamps had 2 that were good. Then the shield over the low beam broke off and laid inside assembly. These lights are junk, Chinese garbage. Company was fair in sending replacements but now I have to and in the defective one and pay to keep extended warranty. Gotta pay because this stuff is garbage????

Purchased another brads set of headlights about 4 year's ago was very disappointed with them was hesitant to order anymore after that saw your product and decided I've give them a try after installing them was extremely pleased I believe there brighter than what came on the car originally
Modification May Be Needed
P
December 29, 2019
Had to cut headlight adjustment screws about 1/4" on both sides, which still cut it close, because they hit upper radiator support and no room to adjust lights up without screw hitting radiator support and putting extreme pressure on adjusting screw and plastic mechanism which can easily break if not careful. Still functioned fine and gave clearer vision at night.

I would recommend this product as an OEM replacement, it fits well, as it should, however, it does not easily allow for you to adjust the angles for your beams.

The headlights arrived when they said they would and they installed just like they were originals. They look great and light up the road perfectly.
Much better than the cheaply made versions available on other sites. I have taken my Malibu through several, (8 plus), car washes now without a leak nor inside condensation buildup like the cheap knock off headlamps! Should have went with 1A Auto first, now and in the future for my reliable old Malibu! Many thanks! Definitely recommended!

I cant thank A1 auto parts enough for all that they have done for me by receiving my auto headlights for my Malibu. I received them on time as they said. They kept me informed of the day that it would be arriving.
The headlights are bright and working great. The price was very reasonable also. Thanks A1 auto parts. James M.

May 18, 2024
The passenger side headlight assembly fit after I noticed that the reason it wasn't dropping into place was that the headlight beam adjustment screw was backed all the was out and was holding the assembly from dropping into place, after running in the adjustment screw, it fit as designed. The drivers side assembly had a similar situation, but didn't fit as cleanly as the passenger side. Because I purchased this car used, I cannot be sure that it has not been in a collision and some sheet metal is not perfectly aligned. But, the lights themselves are a vast improvement over that the lights I removed. I adjusted the headlight beam alignment and I am very happy with this purchase.
Would recommend this product as well as 1A auto
