Newbie Needs Help!! (Headlights)!!
I just bought some Xenon Hyper White bulbs on e-bay last night for my Headlights. Now I do know some things about vehicles and what not, but I've never changed headlight bulbs before. Can someone give me a dumbed down version on how to step by step replace the stock bulbs with my new ones. They will porbably come in next week sometime.
Thanks for any help!

1. Open Hood
2. Take Clamps Off Back Of Headlight
3. remove headlight
4. Untwist the wire/bulb holder.
5. Pulls the Light off the Socket and replace with new one.
6. Twist the Holder back in.
7. replace Headlight
8. Put Clamps back in (make sure the headlight is in the little slots in the back!)
9. Close the hood

try and keep your finger prints off of the bulbs. (use a rag to handle them.) I think the oils on our hands might shorten the life of them if touched.

Ok, so the install tonight didnt go so well......................
I could only get the highbeam bulbs in. I couldnt get to the lowbeam bulbs to replace them. I unscrewed this screw that tilted the whole light forward toward me. With that screwed all the way out I could get to the lowbeam bulbs but not the highbeam bulbs. HOW THE F*&$ do I get to the highbeam bulbs??!?
I really dont want to pay the local machanic to put them in for me so please help me out guys.
