Sad, isn't it? I was going to change from 4300K to 5000K as with all of my vehicles, but I will wait until I install my lower grille now.
I thought this was a mistake the first several times I read it until I looked deeper into the exploded views... Nope, no joke.
Dealer time / chargeback for a light bulb change is 2.3 hours. Gotta love it!
