Changing Lights

jsingh · 02-26-2009, 08:49 PM

I'm in the process of buying 6k HID's and new parking an fog light bulbs. I would prefer to have a shop install for me 1. b/c I dont have the time 2. Dont want to do anything incorrectly. I've read through the DIY sections, but I would rather have someone whos done it before do it. Does anyone know any reputable places in GTA where I can get it done, or perhaps someone who has done it themselves? I called my dealship and they want $115 an hr!!

Also has anyone here changed the door/licence/dome lights? I've seen the vids an DIY's, how easy is it to really do?

really all you need is a small screwdriver with end wrapped in tape. every thing just pops out and you pop the new ones in. Hardest is the licence plate lights but they are not hard really just the hardest out of the bunch. the loght in the trunk can be a pain in cold weather as you can break the tab but it was -25 when i did my first one so my fault. Even if you do bust the tap the plastic dome is only like 20 bucks CAD to get a new one fromthe dealer. I have done thisa twice now. once on my 08 and once on my 09. Really is easy second time my wife did half and I did half that is how eaasy it is. you can be a total noob and still do this

Thanks Shumby, I'm gonna give it a go once they arrive.

Any ideas for places to get my headlights done though?
