- Step 8 - removing the old lights.

To remove the lights you will need the number 25 Torx Head, there are 3 per light, it is usefull to take a look at your new xenons to get a better feel as to where the two hidden screws are. I have cicrled the parts where there are small access holes.



Close up with bumper off, for hidden screw 1: (I know this pic is with the Xenon in, but I forgot to take a pic, so I took one for you guys afterwards.) through the small hole in that is marked by the blue square you will gain access to the screw (circled in green) you need to remove this screw completely or the headlight assembly will not come out.



Close up with bumper off, for hidden screw 2: through the blue square you will find a screw that you will need to untighten a bit inorder to give way for the headlight to come out. You do not have to remove this screw, however you can if you want to.




- Step 9 - replacing the old with the new.

You should now be able to get your halogens out, just unplug the wiring harness and your all set, plug your new xenons in, check if they work, and repeat steps 8 to 1 again to put the car back together.

Here are some pics of the finished product still in the garage.








Note: Its better to mount the bumper on after the lights have only been soflty tightened as you will have quite a bit of adjusting to do inorder to make the headlight line up with the bumper and hood

I hope you all enjoyed this DIY...
