Thanks to Vlad and Scott for helping take pictures! Also thanks Scott for using his car as a picture car. Really helps forum members understand how to install lights without going to dealer and pay them 2 hours labor because "they need to remove the bumper."
The long requested headlight install and headlamp removal has been posted. It is honestly very simple and hard to mess up. If you have questions, feel free to PM me, text me, or call me. It doesnt matter where you bought your products. It can be from me or any other vendor or merchant. If you have a question, feel free to ask me and I can guide you. I prefer texts and PMs.
BTW, try not to remove any plugs since you may forget to plug the adaptive headlights plug back (for pre-LCI headlights) and then phuck everything up. Enjoy the lights everyone!
John

I meant the install/removal of the latex gloves you wore to do the install

It was meant to be a compliment to the amount of detail in your DIY. You are "the man"
