I got a new set of 6000k D2S bulbs and plan on replacing them tomorrow. And I had a question about changing them, do I need to disconnect the battery before changing them? If so what besides the radio code will be reset that I should keep in mind? And final question, is it better to remove the entire headlight assembly or try and go in from the back like on the high-beams?

 

I would disconnect the battery just in case you dont wanna blow a fuse. Just go from the back if you have a 1 piece headlight. But if its a 2 and you an get it out then go for it.

 

or you could just take the fuse out or if you blew a fuse its 50 cents at a gas statiom

 

I've changed my HIDs 3 times and I've never unplugged my battery and it was fine.

 

Ok, then I don't think I need to disconnect the battery. I just thought that since they are such high voltage I might but doesn't sound like I need to.

Still wondering, should I remove the whole headlight assembly or is it easy enough to do from the back?

 

Even though they're high voltage, you won't have them turned on so it doesn't matter. And you should be able to do it from the back of the assembly with no problems.

 

i warn you, it's tight back there especially on the driver's side if your setup looks like mine. i posted pix of my install. very detailed ones. but if you have uniquely smart hands like mine you'll be fine. just be patient

Wow, you weren't kidding about being tight. The driver's side wasn't too bad but the passenger was ridiculous. Now I just have to re-align them. Do I just do that by turning the little white adjustment ****?

 

Did you end up taking out the whole assembly or not? I have a vvme kit on its way but I think when I install it I'm going to take out the whole assembly and do the clear corner mod.
