3. You will see 2 Cap on the Headlights. Trun them until the come undone ( Watch out that you dont drop them inside the engine bay or it will be very hard to get them back, so use 2 hands. 1 to trun and other to hold it.

7. This is the high beam side.

8. To undo these bulbs you will see a Metal clip. By holding the metal part with a finger nail just unclip it and it will come undone(REMEMBER NOT TO TOUCH THE GLASS BIT ONLY THE METAL PARTS.) you can cover it with a cloth to undo it.
It will blow much easy it you touch the class on the bulb. This is because of the grease in your finger that will make the bulb much hotter when they are in use and it will over heat and blow.

9. Put the new PIAA bulbs in and it all done within 3 mins for each bulb.

If you guys what a set please pm me I can ship them worldwide.
