u dont need to remove your whole headlamp assembly. just open your hood and take a look at the back of where the headlight bulbs go in. they twist in and out.
so go to your stock low beam and twist it counter clockwise and pull out.
then unclip it from the wiring harness.
put your new bulb in your headlamp housing and turn it clockwise...
then reclick the wiring harness to your new bulb. hope that helps...

pm me if yer still having trouble.

reason why not to touch it is because u will leave human greese residue which will blow the bulbs. Please use gloves if you can
