Just bought the new bulbs 8000K but how did you remove the head light assembly. I took the top two screws out and sill can't get the assembly out. Th drivers side I was able to remove and replace in place, but I can't get the other side with the overflow tank in the way. And advice would be appreciated.

(8) screws total, (4) per headlight assembly, (2) on top and (2) on bottom, remove the bumper to access bottom screws and out they will come.

I put 6000k in mine, it took me, oh, an hour or so, to do highs and lows as well as pulling the bumper off

Thanks for the instructions, but one question ...... the radiator tank ..... it implies that you remove the ring on the bottom of the tank by pulling it off. Is this correct? I can feel the ring but no slit or tab. Or is it that the tank has to be pulled to one side or the other to release? HELP

Watch for my posts with full pictures and instructions soon!
Two years later this thread rises from the dead, amazing. I wonder when the promised pictures and instructions will appear.
This mod has been described better by maxichon which warranted its elevation to a sticky.
