not too hard.. just pull the headlight and go to work

They will be a TIGHT fit going in (on the edges.. you'll see what i mean) but not to big of a deal. Takes 30 mins or so if you take your time.

Mine were a b*tch on my Camaro. I almost cracked one of them trying to get it to go in.

Took me 30 min. Jacked the car up(just so i didnt have to lay on the ground) and removed the plastic panels. If i remember right the bolts are 9mm. There are 3 of them in each lense. No sweat
