Hyundai Getz DIY State Vehicle Inspection Prep. (HD)

Got a state vehicle inspection coming up? In this video, we tackle two state inspection killers on a 2009 Hyundai Getz:

1. License Plate Light Bulb Replacement
Think it's a quick swap? Think again. These bulbs are hidden deep inside the tailgate — totally inaccessible from the outside. We’ll go through the exact teardown needed to get to them without damaging your trim or losing your sanity.

2. Brake Fluid Change + WHY do it
If your brake pedal feels mushy or inconsistent, your fluid may be cooked. Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture, lowering its boiling point and can creat little bubbles under performance heat. That’s not just bad… it’s dangerous, ca cause your brake to seel like mashed potatoes and can create side to side brake force inconsistency. This isn’t just an inspection prep — it’s a dive into preventative maintenance.
