since you have a 2000 gs3, you have halogen headlights..so it's very easy to change these out. twist the 9006 bulbs out (1/4 turn) and replace.. if you have oem HIDs, it's much harder and small hands is a plus.

your manual should explain all this stuff.

yes, if it's halogen, it's very easy (just make sure the car is not running and headlights are not on). just twist like described

if you have hid headlights for whatever reason, then it's omre complicated, and i have a guide in the lighting forum
