I want to replace my oem lights with the 6k and my white fogs, and also some new led blinkers.. anyone want to help me? I think I can do it after seeing the DIY thread, I'd just like to have someone there in case I need help =]

It's not that hard. Jack up the car, take the splash gaurd down, remove the cap change the bulb and wellah! Repeat the same step on the other side. Changing the bulbs with the wheels on is a PITA!

Still kind of a hassle to do it from the top IMO. not much space to work with at the top.

^No need to. Your're making more work for yourself. But I mean I guess you can do it that way too. i normally just take the fender plastic down.
is it hard to clip the projector bulb back in? i know its kind of hard to get the fog lights in... what about blinkers? how would you remove those from under?

i just did mine just turn the wheel over to the left or right and your hand will fit in there, the clip comes right off and clips back on.
ok cool.. anyone ever replaced the blinkers before?? i'm about to buy some leds for $20 off another member

The blinkers are easy to replace since there are no clips holding it in place. All you have to do is turn the socket and pull it out. Just make sure that when you install the new bulbs, you hear them clip all the way into the socket.
What sucks about installing turn signals through the wheel well is that they are located all the way on the inner part of the headlight so you have to reach more than if you were to do the fogs/hids

should i remove the whole headlight assembly then?

you can do it w/o removing the headlight... i didnt even jack up the car/remove wheel when i did my bulbs... try it w/o removing the headlight first =D save yourself the trouble...
idk if i want to do it that way anymore.. i think i'll probably remove the headlight since I have to mount some resistors for my led blinkers
