Hi all. Just joined you all.. just brought a j11 Tekna.. looking for advice on how to change a headlight bulb as the beam is facing the floor and the adjuster doesn't seem to do jack.. have searched the forum but can't find what I'm looking for..

You can't change the bulb on a Tekna - it's LED.

I assume you're out of warranty? And bought the car privately?

An LED headlight will be very expensive! Especially at Nissan. Best get a mechanic to look it over first?

Used headlights on eBay are going for £35 upwards but be careful - all the low priced ones appear possibly to be defective and a lot have broken lugs. I also suspect that although coming up on an LED search they're actually halogen with LED DRLs.

The cheapest I could find that was full LED was £129.99 with only one lug broken. Next cheapest was £158.95 again with a broken lug

Check the part number on yours - the ones on eBay seem to be 10018014 and 10018016

Interestingly when I put that into eBay a lot of the cheap ones came up. Perhaps this is highlighting another Nissan problem that to date appears not to have been recognised - LED headlight failures?
