You have to remove your front bumper...

I had to remove mines once when I was getting them tinted. And yeah just like boozshey said it's EASIER for you if you remove the whole front bumper. I didn't have to remove mine because I did one side, then the other side, but I still had to remove all the screws, clips for the lower bug deflector etc and the only thing that was holding it in place were the clips by the turn signal light on one side while I was working on the other, but if you do it that way youhave more chances of scratching them

Yeah I heard you got to take splash guards and front bumper off.
How about the wiring any one know how to do that ones theses headlights??
Or is it better to take it in cause also doing front bumper turn signals at the same time???

Thanks for all the help so far.

Vision is better with these lights, same ones that I have. I put some silverstar light bulbs in th low beams for increased vision. The wiring is a bit tricky, I had to get help when I did mine. I have the halo and LED part setup as running/parking lights and to run while i have the lowbeams on.
