pull the 2 vertical tabs out, take bulb assembly loose, reverse action and you are done. Takes about 1 minute per side.

Yup, one of the quickest mods I've done yet, besides a shorter antenna that took like 30 sec

Gotta pop the hood first obviously. Then look at the very back of the headlight fixture. Should be two pull tab thingies. Not sure if it is dependent on year model though. Had to swap out a light bulb in one of mine just yesterday. Took all of about a minute and a half.
