I just picked up some 2001 Lightning headlight. Could someone please tell me if they are hard to install, and if not how do you do it? Thanks guys.

 

Installation

 

The lights are real easy to install. Look in your owners manual under bulbs, you will find the easy steps to replace them. Takes about 15-20 minutes.

 

Pop your hood and you're see two tabs behind the headlight. Pull them back and up until they stop. You should be able to pull or push the light out now. Now you have to disconnect the bulb harness. Grab the new headlight and plug in the harness. Line the threaded legs on the back of the new headlight to the holes in the headlight nest and lightly push in. This may take awhile to do because if they're not lined up right they won't go. Once in push the tabs down until they lock. I almost forgot to tell you to be careful not to break the light bulb harness tabs when you disconnect them. They're made out of a rigid plastic and don't have alot of give. Also you're probably have to line them up. I did it by pulling up to a wall on level ground, turning on the headlights,pulling the tabs up and moving the lights until they were in line. Then I locked them back. When everything is done you'll be extra sweet
