headlight unit swap
with the exception of the low beam, they're a direct swap. you'll need to take off the front bumper. for the low beam, you can either splice the wires and attach an h11 bulb plug, or buy an adapter to go from 9006 to h11. which is probably the best route.
Full front bumper removal not necessary,
One screw by wheel liner.
1 screw as you pull the wheel liner back. (holds bumper to fender)
5 plastic push-pins on top of bumper mounted to front frame.
2 screws holding upper tabs of headlight.
Pull and prop front bumper away from vehicle.
1 10mm bolt each side of headlights.
Disconnect all wires, and bulbs, pull and done.
5 minutes each side tops. 15 minutes tops for full swap.

h11 harnesses? get them from your local auto store, they will probably come as "high wattage connectors". h11 harnesses, female connectors, some correct gauge wire, and you don't have to splice.
otherwise you can cut your old harness off and just splice the two wire ends together.
