Default I need help with headlights

I need some help tomorrow night around 5 or 6 in taking out my stock headlights. I am finally getting JDM headlights. Anybody that can help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Definately print the directions off of Ricks website. They pretty much tell you everything you need to do. Really, if your just swapping out headlights, you shouldn't have any problems. If you follow the directions, they are pretty straight forward. I'd help, but I'll be busy. Good luck.

You need a T-25 tamper proof bit to remove the hid ballasts.

Sears was sold out at 2 locations! I needed it tonight so I called Harbor Freight Tools and they had it in stock for less than half the price. Thanks to Sears for recommending them! How long will this process take?

I think it only took about 45 minutes to get the bumper and light outs. Just time consuming getting all the bolts out. Other then that its fairly easy. Just follow the directions on Rick's site. Be careful removing the bulbs. One of my highbeams doesnt work so I probably hit it when taking all the bulbs out.
