Glad you got them in.
I prefer to just remove the bumper personally. Takes about 15 minutes but saves a whole helluva a lot of cursing. |

When I read that I will have to pry the bumper at places and that there are "tabs" that hold it in place I instantly thought that some of these "tabs" may be brittle too and break instead of deflect (are these tabs or slots hard plastic?). So for this reason, I will save the bumper skin job until I have to. Shame because it would be nice to remove the lower hash grille and replace it. |

To WPoll, the cover on this side does have 4 screws. After getting the Air cleaner out of the way - and fishing out one of the air cleaner clips that dropped into the abyss (these are not magnetic and therefore would not be fished with my magnet stick - fortunately I also have a spring claw that worked), these four screws came out without anything breaking. I have just washed my hands and am waiting for them to fully dry so I can get the nitrite gloves to slide on (one size fits all - my eye). Back to the garage Edit: OK, job is done. Before closing the hood I will recondition the lenses. Lessons learned from this job.

I just bought these last week, worked out great.

Swapped out the D2S HID bulbs this morning. An 'Australia Day' task that I've been kinda dreading for a while. Wasn't as bad a job as I thought it would be.
The OEM bulb is a strange beast.... Didn't look like anyone else had ever been in there judging by the difficulty in separating the headlight rear cover from the front. Ended up with Osram Nightbreakers (35W) for cheaper than Philips, but had to wait 10 days as they came from the UK (half the price they wanted here in Aus). |
