Default Replacing Headlight Housing

I bought my set of smoke headlights for my "01" for $108.00 this includes s&h for the set on ebay. Now I need to know how to take the old ones out and put the new ones in.

On my 95, i had to unscrew header panel on each side of headlight (very easy). Then look for the long bolts and unscrew, making sure you take your bulbs out. Replace w/ new ones, done... kind of get in and see whats holding them in and replace. You wont have any problems....

There are Two (2) metal pull tabs on them, all you have to do is pull them up and your whole houseing will come right out for ya. Shold take you about 5 mins total to install both houseings.

That sounds very easy! I know mine is a little more involved, but i guess that comes w/ the newer technology....
