The compact Chevrolet Cobalt reached the auto market for the first time in 2004. By then, it was available as coupe and sedan versions. It also came with a variety of trim levels. The manufacturer resumed its only one generation in 2010. With an interior that’s isolated from the external noises, this high-performance car guaranteed a high degree of comfort.
These unique features won the hearts of drivers. But just like anything else on this planet, the parts of this graceful vehicle wear out, and you have to replace them. If you don’t, prepare to forgo the reliability and comfort that your car guarantees.
Since that’s not the path that you would like to take, we have prepared this detailed Chevrolet Cobalt headlight bulb replacement guide to make your life easier. It provides generation information on these areas. But we recommend you also consult your dealers that cooperate with reputable manufacturers, such as Replace, Anzo, Spyder, and Spec-D on issues like your standard socket size. This way, you’ll be able to get the highest quality and reliability without breaking the bank.
Chevrolet Cobalt headlight bulb size chart
You want to learn how to replace your Cobalt’s headlight, turning signal, or parking light bulb? Find the exact Chevrolet Cobalt headlight bulb size that you need. If you don’t, chances are, you’ll waste a lot of time figuring out what to do. Get the specs of the components as early as now. Whether you want to buy LED lamps, halogen lamps, HID headlight kit, Xenon headlight kit, fog light, etc, you can resort to aftermarket light bulbs.
Aftermarket light bulbs: upgrades
You probably now know that your Cobalt came with the standard halogen bulbs that are less than impressive. So, as you plan to replace them, think about the nicer, aftermarket headlights that are readily available. If you choose to go for something more stylish in the aftermarket, consider the options that top industry manufacturers, like Spyder Auto and Spec-D Tuning, produce.
Another reason you should consider the aftermarket headlights is that most of them come with added valuable design features. You can expect to get accent LEDs, LED DRLs, CCFL/LED Halos, etc. Other than that, you find it easy to pick out a wide variety of designs, order, and plug-and-play install any of them.
