What Lighting System Does the 2010 Hyundai Azera Have?

The 2010 Hyundai Azera features an extensive lighting system with 12 bulb positions. It uses halogen technology with H11B LED low beams and H7 LED high beams in a dual-bulb configuration. The Azera has been available from 2006 to 2017, and the 2010 model falls in the mid-generation years.

Can You Put LED Bulbs in a 2010 Hyundai Azera?

To upgrade the 2010 Hyundai Azera headlights to LED, you will need a H11B LED LED kit for the low beams and a H7 LED LED kit for the high beams. Start with the low beams since they are used most often and have the biggest impact on nighttime visibility. For the fog lights, a H8 LED LED bulb provides a clean white output that pairs well with LED headlights.

How to Replace Bulbs on a 2010 Hyundai Azera

To remove the headlight bulb, disconnect the wiring harness, then twist the bulb counter-clockwise and pull it straight out of the housing. Older model years like the 2010 Azera typically offer easy access to the headlight bulbs from behind the headlight assembly under the hood. Most owners can complete the swap in under 10 minutes per side. When installing the new bulb, avoid touching the glass with bare fingers. Skin oils create hot spots that shorten bulb life. Wear clean gloves or handle the bulb by its plastic base only. The fog lights are accessed from underneath the front bumper. You may need to remove a few plastic clips or screws from the fender liner to reach the H8 LED fog light socket.

How Long Do 2010 Hyundai Azera Headlight Bulbs Last?

Standard halogen headlights on the 2010 Hyundai Azera have an expected lifespan of 500 to 1,000 hours, which works out to roughly 2 to 3 years of normal use. Signs of a failing halogen bulb include noticeably dimmer output, a yellowish tint compared to the other headlight, or intermittent flickering. At 16 years old, the original bulbs on your Azera are likely overdue for replacement. Even if they still illuminate, reduced brightness significantly impacts nighttime safety. When one headlight burns out, replace both sides at the same time. Bulbs from the same batch age at similar rates, and mismatched brightness is distracting to oncoming drivers.

What Bulbs Are Compatible with the 2010 Hyundai Azera?

The H11B low beam bulb on the 2010 Hyundai Azera is a specific fitment. There are no widely recognized cross-compatible alternatives, so make sure to purchase the exact H11B size. Using the wrong bulb size can cause improper beam patterns that reduce your visibility and blind other drivers. It can also cause overheating inside the headlight housing, potentially warping the plastic lens or reflector. Always verify the bulb number before purchasing.

The whole process typically takes 10 to 30 minutes per side depending on accessibility.

LED bulbs used off-road or in auxiliary lights are legal everywhere. For on-road headlight use, legality varies by state. Many states allow LED retrofits as long as the beam pattern meets DOT standards. For the best legal compliance, choose a DOT-approved H11B LED LED kit that is designed as a direct replacement and produces a proper cutoff pattern without excessive glare.

A pair of halogen H11B LED bulbs costs $15 to $40, while LED conversion kits run $25 to $60 per pair. If you have a shop do the work, expect an additional $20 to $50 in labor per bulb. Replacing them yourself at home saves the labor cost and usually takes under 30 minutes.

Halogen bulbs produce a warm yellow light (around 3200K), last 500 to 1000 hours, and draw more power. LED bulbs emit a brighter white light (5000-6000K), last 25,000+ hours, and use less energy. LED upgrades for the H11B LED position are available as direct plug-and-play replacements.
