LEDs will not be brighter. We offer them, but they are not better for tinted lights. The advantage is for heat

Thanks everybody
No, the black bezel around the headlight. Has 3 phillips screws holding it on 1 to the outside and 2 on the inside.

I always go through the top... My hands are too big to go through the brake duct hole comfortably (although I have done it) and going in through the top is very easy. It also gives you a ton of room to work...

Ten minute job for both sides...

Rep for this thread. I have had my car 13 years and never had to change the front turn lamps. There are 1-2 too many steps in this process but what can you do. I went through bottom access panel and was able to see what I was doing a little better than coming in from top. Thanks!
