Thanks EVO!! I also looking for pics of the DIY. I remember seeing access to the bulbs through the front inner wheel wells, is that part you took a picture of accessible from under the hood?

Thanks!

those pis are from the Euro that not install yet, just waiting for the 6000K bulbs to do all the install at once

Evo, in those pics, I cannot see the part where you access the angel eyes. Is that located in a separate housing?

Thanks!
Danny

0)Discconect battery
1)Jack car up or put on a lift
2)Remove front wheels
3)Remove front wheel housings ( easy, just unbolt )
4) Remove cover on back of lighthousing ( seen in first pic in above post )
5) Unclip and remove Xenon bulb
6) Assemble in reverse

do not need to jack up car or use a lift
do not need to remove the whels

well just turn the wheels away and you should be ok. danny, if you need my help call me dude...

edit: just forgot your car is lowered. yes you have to lift your car but you still do not have to remove your wheels..
