If you have the headlight set..it should be really easy..just unscrew the old ones, unplug, and put the new ones in..

just got your reply,
since you have facelifted model, you need to take off whole front bumper.
other than that, nothing hard, it's simple plug and play.

good luck!

correct, there are hidden bolts behind the front bumper (bottom of headlight)
however, you don't need to take off front bumper if you need to replace turn signal bulbs.
