some silver stars will make them less yellow.

Ive never changed mine, but im assuming you need to take off the top of the headlight, the lid (w/e its called)

i think there are 3 screws that hold the plastic piece, then four torks? screws that hold the headlight on. easy as pie. I actually had a cop bust a you-ee to come pull me over for a no headlight, so i whipped in to wally world and changed it in the p-lot. 5 minutes. as far as bulb choices, i could use some options as well, anything other than silverstar?

i was driving with only my fogs on bc the gear my headlight motor is going and doesnt go up. I just had a cop look at me but thats it. So its easy huh, umm so i have to take the headlight off? no rec. for bulbs?
