Default How to change headlight bulbs?

Hey guys just picked up my nebula grey/ cabernet f sport last week.

I have some Philips Ultinon 6k bulbs to swap out from my old is350 but when I get to the back of the headlights I can't figure it out? How do you swap these things out?

Thanks,
-Jeff

Edit found an old old post - figured it out thanks

As far as changing them goes, it's pretty straight forward just very difficult on driver's side. Do the passenger side first so that you're aware of what needs to be done. The silver ballast cover twists off. Then there is a power cable from that, that connects to the bulb. The bulb is held in with springy clips. Be sure to watch how you pull the old bulb out so you can match up the notches when putting the new bulb in. Don't touch the glass.
