My 4.6is comes with clear but I want to update to 04+, it says that I need to disconect the battery, recode.....do I really have to do that or can I just turn off the keys?

Wait a minute, aren't you the guy in the "smoked lenses" thread? If you're in this business, why do your own lights present such a challenge to you? I don't get it?
