Preparation: Before starting, ensure all components are in good shape. Verify package contents and check for any physical damage.
Bumper Removal (If Required): Many modern vehicles require the front bumper cover to be removed or loosened to access headlight assembly anchor points.
Examine the bumper cover for exposed bolts, which are typically found when opening the hood or underneath the vehicle where the bumper cover meets the splash shields.
Remove any plastic caps or clips with a flathead screwdriver to access these bolts.
Detach the bumper cover by sliding it horizontally along the bracket pieces if specific instructions are unavailable.
Headlight Assembly Removal: Remove the front grille if necessary to access bolts or clips securing the headlight assembly.
Unbolt the headlight assembly using a socket wrench, locating hold-down bolts in the metal body panels.
Release any hold-down clips with a flathead screwdriver.
Electrical Connections: Disconnect all electrical connectors from the back of the headlight assembly.
Connect the new headlight assembly by plugging it into the vehicle's wire harness.
For headlights with additional lighting elements like halos or LED lights, connect the extra wires to the parking/running lights using a voltmeter to identify the correct wires.
Final Steps: Test all lights to ensure they function correctly.
Reinstall the bumper cover and grille if they were removed.
Adjust the aim of the headlights using a tape measure and masking tape, ensuring the low beam shines 3.5 feet high on a wall 25 feet away.
Professional Assistance: Although the product supports automatic installation, it is strongly recommended that you use the services of a local professional installation engineer.
