I decided to swap the factory bulbs to much brighter led's for the front and back of my 2019 Kia Forte EX. The front of the car took approximately
10 min. The rear took about 30, that'll be coming in the next upload.
Tools required:
Flat head screwdriver
Front Led:
KATUR 1157 BAY15D P21/5W 1034... www.amazon.ca/dp/B082HK1GV7?r...
Rear LED:
TUINCYN 1156 Canbus Error Free LED Light Bulb Amber Yellow Turn Signal Lights CREE Chip BA15S 1141 1003 7506 Bulb with Built-in Load Resistor Anti Hyp www.amazon.ca/dp/B0828Y5XF5/r...

I’ve been wanting to do this! I’ve already changed my low beams and fogs to matching 5000k HID bulbs and I have LED license plate bulbs as well, so this will probably be my next upgrade.

Hello, do you have a video of the LED swap of the rear turn signals? I tried to change the reverse lights. It was a pain but cannot imagine reaching the turn signal socket as it sits higher. I have a 2020 Kia Forte EX and the driver side is harder. But even on the passenger side, I don’t know how I will reach the turn signals. Thank you in advance. 😊

hey man irrelevant question but im considering buying the Kia Forte but i cant get over the location of the rear turn signals, have you had any instances when changing lanes in tight knit traffic where people couldnt see your turn signal?

@KiaForteMods 3 жыл бұрын

Hey, thank you for watching! To be honest I don’t think I’ve ever had that issue. I feel like the other driver has to be extremely close to you for them not to see the turn signal. I found that with the leds in, the turn signal lights are way brighter! So that should help if you decide to go for a forte!

Hi! Looks great. Did you get any error message on the computer? Something like check your lights or bulb missing? I want to change my stop lights but I used a regular leds (no canbus) and I got this problem. Did you already use this Katar 1157 for stop lights? Thanks!

@KiaForteMods 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for watching!! I didn’t get any error at all, of course these have the canbus support and are error free. My forte came with the led head and tail lights so I never had to change them. But I have a friend that had regular taillights so I’ll be doing a swap on those soon. Stay tuned.

hey man, I'm in London aswell! I just bought a 2019 forte EX, no sun roof or anything so just the 4dr EX model. I was wondering if the headlights are white or yellow? I pick my car up in a couple days so I was just curious. Thanks and great vid!

@KiaForteMods 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for watching, glad you liked the video! Congrats on the new car, you're gonna love it for sure. The headlights are a very bright white if you have the led's which i believe the EX does. And more of a traditional warm white if you have the non led variant.

@DryCustard 3 жыл бұрын

@@KiaForteMods Thanks so much man, after leaving my first comment i noticed your name and figured I had to leave a sub and honestly those red callipers look clean asf, good job! I've only seen the running led lights in person so far and it's the same setup as yours with the 4 white led squares sort of surrounding the headlight itself so I'm assuming that means I've got the led version. I pick the car up on Monday and in the mean time ill check out the rest of your vids!

Hi Did you happen to change the fog lights as well? If so how? And how difficult is it?

@alfredrodriguez7232 3 жыл бұрын

I swapped out the fog lights. It's not difficult but it is kinda a pain. You need to remove the plastic undercarriage cover (plastic clips and a few screws) to access the fog lights. Unplug the wire harness. The fog lights have this weird secondary plastic housing that did not let me to twist off the stock fog light. I had to unclip the housing and then I could twist and pull out the stock fog light bulb. It's really tight so my arm got scratched up, but it wasn't difficult.
