anyone.. Does the ballast unscrew in the back to insert the bulbs?

Are you replacing the bulbs and ballast? Or just the bulbs? If just bulbs then remove the grommets and remove the old bulbs, you wont have to mess with the ballasts at all. If replacing the ballasts then you'll have to take your headlights off completely I believe.

Yes just replacing the bulbs... thanks ...

Then it will be fairly simple installation process. Just be careful not to touch the glass of the HID bulb. Make sure the bulbs properly seated iinto the housing before clipping it back into place. Just a slight adjustment can dramatically change the lights projection, hendering light output and possible damage to the housing.

Let me know if you need anything.

1. Unscrew the plastic cap at the rear of the headlight housing.
2. Press the wire clip prongs inward in the direction of the bulb, and pull out. The wire clip frees the igniter for removal.
3.Remove the igniter by rotating it counterclockwise a few degrees until it stops. It will pull off.
4.Remove the HID bulb housing. It will come right out.
5. Remove the old bulb, and replace with the new bulb. Take care not to touch the class part of the bulb. Make sure it seats firmly in the socket.
6. Replace the bulb assembly, the igniter and the spring clip, and test to make sure it works correctly.
