Headlight install question...

Ok, I have all the bulbs I need, but I just have a question.

I read the FAQ/DIY for the fogs/high beam, but couldn't find a thread on replacing the HID/low beam. So my question is, by doing everything in the fog DIY will you be able to access the low beam to swap the bulbs as well? I guess this is kind of a stupid question. I'm just hoping I don't have to remove the entire headlight.

Also, about how long does it took to swap the bulbs for the highs and lows?

Thanks.

if you get the hang of it, it should take no more than 30 minutes. You just need to access the rear of the headlights through the wheel well and replace the bulbs by removing the circular plastic cover first and twist off the iqnitor counter clockwise for the low beam and pull it towards you, then unclip the retainers to take out the HID bulb.

you dont have to remove the entire headlight. I'm assuming you're talking about my DIY thread for the sedan. The HID housing is right above the fogs so its all right there for you to swap the bulbs.
